The Guarda







I had never seen riot gear in person before. Sure, I've seen police in riot gear on the television. During the civil unrest, there were police in riot gear, usual uniform, and on horseback. I didn't get any clear pictures of the ones on horseback. When we saw them, they were riding in a line of about 5. It was impressive.

After peace was established in an area, the police then guarded it to keep others out and to maintain it.
