        The militia is hurling stones towards the kids. The police are repulsing the militia using teargas whilst helping the kids. Can't you see??

        But we can clearly see they were protecting the very children from rioters you cleverly edited out of the video. Be honest...

        The kids are running away from the tear gas unless you wanted them to run where the police were throwing the gas
