They can't stand people even peacefully protesting. Plus, they want to start something.

With anything including murder.

That would be the beginning of the end of this shit.
Sure they would stand tall at first but things would change like they always do.

The "gas shortages and gas station lines" ended when people started vandalizing the gas stations.
This is a tiny example that I lived through. The Vietnam war protests come to mind...
