Someone else suggested we should start arresting people doing the low-level things, like cutting down trees, or tearing down the East wing, and then let the courts fight it out.

I think that should be done in every possible instance like this - send in cops to arrest people running these ads.

Scare the shit out of people being asked to do illegal and immoral things.

Donnie keeps doing things and then it takes weeks/months/years to fight it or try to slow it down or stop it. What should be done is start creating examples of those carrying it out. By acting first - meaning, arrest, then let it shake out. If someone else steps up, arrest them as well.

    send in cops to arrest people running these ads.

    The people running these ads are the ones that own the police departments.

    That really is the problem. The executive is the enforcement arm of the government. Plus the far right has owned law enforcement for a long time. The FBI even published a report years ago that discussed the threat of nationalists coopting police forces.
