Unfortunately, smart bureaucrats usually stake out where they'll strike. And, have their media friends lined up to demonize any who resist.
I would classify the "media friends" of the 'crats as other targets of opportunity in that smart psycho's mind. Not even the most wealthy and powerful and lawyered-up can protect every target and secure EVERY piece of high ground. That would require an army beyond even the capabilities of the police. When enough people go this route, society as we know it is cooked.
