Thing is, riots are very rarely about 'that type of copper'.

They are the same coppers that give you the 'my daughter's a vegetarian and I think you'll find a lot of officers agree with you' speech earlier in the day, then the order comes to put on the visor and get out the clubs.

They very rarely go apeshit. They are sent in as a cohesive force. The instigation of riots, the beating of anyone who happens to be within reach, this isn't the odd bad apple, it is the policing strategy on the day and all officers sent in participate.
