In exchange for your manhood. Moral chaos in Central Park

It's an ambiguous situation. If most of the crowd is spectators then they will vanish or not take part if you can go for the real instigators. There is risk though.

But I do recall that folks ran out to help Reginald Denney. One guy saw him being beaten on the tube and went to his aid.

Who knows - given you were there with a firearm - rushing into CQB is a way to get disarmed. Just opening up on the crowd, doing a speed reload and shooting again seems a less than exciting option.

I'm curious for our LEOs, if you were standing with a group (including yourself) of 4 officers and saw a mob of 100 or so doing this, what would you do?

Clubs, OC, command shouts - what?

The odds don't matter...it isn't a question [to me or I believe to Lawdog and others] of IF we will live/win but rather that we WON'T stand by and not act.
