Show detail Hide detail

Riot control is the subject of this public affairs program hosted by Warner Troyer. Part 2 examines the use of riot control weaponry. Footage includes: a Riot Control School in Springfield, Massachusetts, attended by police; Russell Bauer, President of Bauer Ordnance Co. (United States) introducing the company's "supercar" designed to control civil disorders; and a satirical song about riot control people. Interviewers Larry Zolf and Alexander Brown discuss reasons for increasing riots and the effectiveness and purpose of new weapons with: riot control consultant Harry Wells, who describes himself as an "Angel of Mercy" [Colonel Rhys Appelgate], author of "Kill or Get Killed"; and black nationalist [Reverend Clegg] of Detroit, who claims the recent Detroit riots were sparked by police brutality. Additional interviews include a New Jersey policeman and a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer who attended the Detroit course. Troyer warns that new legislation and weapons can be applied to peaceful demonstrations as well as riots. <30mn>
