The author:

1. Underestimates the superiority and effectiveness of the Command and Control of the police force

2. Overestimates the superiority of a mob vs a phalanx.

3. Makes generalized assumptions over why the police allowed them to stay.

4. Assumes that the police will not use their formation with calvary (automobiles, aricraft, and actual horses) as a means of denying the flank or the retreat.

This reads like someone who just went through a college course in ancient combat and has little practical experience in the matter of Command and Control or strategic thinking.
