People might be upset that nobody threw any haymakers but its honestly far smarter to do what they did. Physically assaulting those nazis would have gotten a gun drawn (the uniformed one literally reached for his in the first 2 minutes but thought better of it).
Successfully interfering with the arrest without getting shot or arrested yourself is possibly the best you can expect from these interactions.
The results are always what matters. Escalate as needed but never be afraid to escalate. If they start throwing down, respond appropriately. If they pull a weapon, be ready to pull one in turn but never be the first to fire.
The goal isn’t to cause harm but to save someone from the hands of oppression. Starting fires helps bring the building down but it doesn’t do much to get the people out before that happens.
Get those who need the help away then stand your ground until the fascists back off so they can’t give chase. just know to be ready and prepared for retaliation as you have now bucked the reigns of authority.
This is true in this case, but I don’t know that I agree it is always the case. I have seen some videos where the ice agents deserve nothing less than a gunshot to the dome in that exact moment.
At some point soon, someone will come to that same conclusion and will be in a position to act on it.
Don’t get me wrong, that’d be awesome too. But when it’s two against 50 like that, it’s better to force them to retreat than to escalate when you don’t need to.

They were too busy trying to pin down the guy, those guns could’ve… fallen off… then it’d be them vs a mob.
