Why were they on the streets? Protesting? Protesting against what? There were trouble makers obviously. What were the law-abiding ones on the streets for? Genuine question. I'm not saying everyone was causing trouble, but why were people piling on the streets? The only conclusion surely is...

He did. But it's not the norm
