If you allow the government to put down a riot by harming rioters, no one’s rights are safe including yours.

So, in your scenario, riots cannot be put down by any means that have teeth.

So the riots, in short, cannot be put down.

Which means total anarchy: Murder, robbery, rape, arson, looting.

And you are okay with all that.

This comes from someone who believes in a nation of laws, not men.

It may be difficult, it may be expensisve, it may be a challenge, but government has to act legally or it loses all credibility. Killing rioters and looters is NOT LEGAL
