9. Aren't they already violent without accountability?

It's a big country and situation vary from place to place, but in many aspects Americans take more shit from fascists that Europeans and many other nations do. All the rage cannot be kept in, it always finds some channel to get out, one way or another.

DU and mass media don't much tell about the daily struggle of people at the bottom and what is going on there, but I see some things. Communities rioting against police murdering their people. In Camden people rescued their friend from a drug war arrest and burned the police car - which I learned from piece about Camden firing whole police department (to hire more non-union cops, hooray). Daily resistance takes many forms also there and not all of them are purely pacifistic.

I believe it's important to get collective impotent rage out of the system, so people can face their fear and start acting from Source, love and compassion. What would be best way or good ways to channel the rage, I don't know.
