Re: Riots
It'll be interesting to see how effective a watercannon will be. In order to be effective, several might be needed.
A watercannon has been shown to be effective where the protest is at a single, fixed location. However, these recent riots seem to be very mobile, and in various locations simultaneously with the rioters playing a cat and mouse game with the police.

With rioters making good use of the terrain (sidestreets to outflank police, etc), it might be difficult to pin them to one location to facilitate use of the watercannon.
