It's a psychological tactic, obviously, but I would be concerned with keeping helmets in use. The additional vests and gear are the image of riot police, not necessarily the helmets alone.

Obviously not.  I was just making fun of those that claim Jewish conspiracy to everything.  As a bonus it was an anti-Isaelie protest.

Once again, I'll ask you; how do anti-israel protests equate to anti-semitism? You bring up a "Jewish conspiracy" as if antisemites are leading them.
