Calmly. Like the other two cops who were speaking in a normal voice and repeating over and over for the kids to back up.

In the movie ‘Wyatt Earp”, Wyatt disagrees with Ed Masterson working as a lawman, believing him to be too passive (Earp described Ed Masterson thusly — “He's amicable”. However, the Dodge City council decides that Ed is more acceptable than Wyatt due to the latter’s excessive force, and fires him, appointing Ed to take his place. Ed Masterson is then later shot dead in the street.
So, snarkybob, I say to you...”You're amicable .... and you just might not be cut out for law enforcement. And your advice to be amicable might get LEOs killed. Their spouses and children might not like that.
from other posts it seems this was some kind of rave party with underage kids
Officers are “amicable,” in your words—I would say “professional”—every single day. It’s part of the job. Officer safety does not require officers to be violent and aggressive, even out of control, on any and every call. The other officers at the scene were in control and professional. This guy wasn’t.

Yeah. That’s a movie. This isn’t really Dodge City those teenage kids aren’t really drunken cowboys and this cop isn’t Wyatt Earp.
If he’s not in control of himself enough to maintain his professional training, you know, like the other two cops then he doesn’t have any business as a cop.
I’ll give you it’s a hard job and I’m sure any number of people or situations can make you see red. He’s supposed to be a professional who’s trained to not go ballistic because some high school kids were being mouthy or not respecting his authority.
The reality is that he was dealing with the same situation that a typical high school teacher handles daily some unruly suburban teenagers.
