Yeah they could do all that I suppose. Maybe 90% of the people would knuckle under. Maybe. The other 10% might not. Even if it was less than that there would be enough to cause real trouble for the instigators and proponents of their torment. Guaranteed. Some people would just not sit back and take it while their life is being ruined for living life the same way that they are right now. The gloves would be off.
Remember Dorner? He terrorized the cops in California to the point that they were shtting their pants.
One man did that.
