Actually, there isn't any need for martial law there. If the Governor had kept his cakehole shut, and not interfered with the lawful operations of real cops instead of sending in an agency with little if any role in such matters, and an incident commander who is obviously wearing Clarino Clownshoes (tm), a lot of this would not be a problem. The only answer to that idiot is an IA, a Loudermill hearing, a trespass notice, a boot in the butt, and a guardianship petition.
Each and every one of the rioters (they are not protestors - those are two different groups of people and behaviors) should have been arrested forthwith. Anyone who lit a Molotov was deploying potentially lethal force, and should have been shot in the face as soon as it was lit. Standard 4th amendment use of force rules should still apply and be sufficient if we did not have such an ignorant sissified society.
