Because it was more than a simple trespassing, my EOD team had to respond. There was no hurry, it would have taken them about a hundred years to even put a significant dent in the 110 ton blast door.

But then, they were really not serious about breaking. However, the government was serious with charging them with damaging military equipment.

Protip: If you want to protest, protest. Don't start damaging equipment. If you protest, you will be let go after a few hours. These people weren't.
It made my angry, when I read your post.
It's....so low...animal behaviour

Why didn't they use their democraty rights?
They could, as you wrote-protest
They could try to affect the politician
They could try to convinced other to vote on this or this person in a Presidential election
They could create their own party and run for power in a future election.

They have so many possibility-destroying dead and living things is absolutly not one of them.
