This is a developing story, and I would like to give Walz the benefit of the doubt that he wants those cops there to make sure no other protesters get killed, until proven otherwise.

It's a very slim hope, but those are the only ones we have left. I don't think your cynicism or the resulting criticisms are misplaced though, and I fear you might be right.
