Riots: curfew works

617 cars burned, 204 people arrested, no cops injured. Some asshole threw a dumbell on a man from 15th floor.

I am trying to understand why police don't shoot the people who throw Molotov cocktails at them, and can't. Molotov cocktail is a deadly weapon, and the death is of a rather unpleasant variety. I really do think that anyone trying to throw those things at people or buildings/vehicles that contain people should be shot on sight, and tried for attempted murder if they survive. (The barbarian in me suggests sticking a Molotov cocktail up their ass and setting it on fire, but such punishment does not belong in a civilized country, and probably violates some fire department rules, too.)
