Letter: Peaceful protest the only way

Are we a civilized society? What's the difference between a lawful protest and mob action?

What's happening in Baltimore today is mob action and should not be tolerated in a civilized society. We know that a young man had his neck broken in police custody, justice is coming, but for law enforcement to now treat mob action like a legitimate protest only leads to anarchy and a break down of a civilized society.
