#2 The most effective pieces of street theater have been those in which some of the protesters got hauled off to the hospital or the morgue: Selma, Kent State, etc. Putting on black masks and forming a mob to threaten Heather McDonald and Ann Coulter puts the left in the Bull Connor position. That doesn't draw a lot of sympathy. Even that young "lady" who ate a fist for the cause a couple of weeks ago got more of a "What a maroon!" reaction.

#3 The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country...and the Winter Soldier.

As z-man said, these riots on TV are just another competing TV program. People are satiated and weary of this.
