Which are what, specifically?
For example, you said what the cop did is standard for risk assessment, correct?
You said that riot gear can change a person's mindset, and thus the reasonable expectation of those interacting with police in riot gear is that they should expect, absent of any actual interaction, that their bodies are at risk by virtue of the fact that the cops are prepared for one situation in particular?
Then as a part of a larger risk management strategy, which attempts to mitigate potential consequences, did it work?
If the way the police handled this is systemic, as in literally part of a system used to help police accurately assess risk, then what is the point at which we can judge the system in a meaningful way?

The justification/morality of how those cops act have no bearing on my assessment of the potential of them getting aggressive with me on June 4, 2020. That's all I'm looking at in this scenario. Tensions are high across the country and the replaying of those images 24/7 can get into the mindset of both sides and cloud judgement/ability to assess situations clearly. In other words, I currently don't trust them to accurately assess the situation so I'm not putting myself in a situation where they could misinterpret my intentions.
