Crowd Control
A crowd is like a living, breathing entity. It has a body and a brain. It also has a protective layer, either a skin or a shell. There are also various types of crowds that need controlling with various degrees of training and control. The wise law enforcement officer will recognize this and treat the crowd accordingly.
