Already have. Do you think it's a singular event to attend? No, it's many small things that eventually grow into big things if they have to.

Look at all the flock cameras destruction. See how that's happening cross country will minimal repercussion? People are learning they can become ungovernable.

I hate this kind of kumbaya take. It serves to lessen the need for real action.
