If law enforcement arrests them and carts them off to jail every time they assault people, these leftists can spout their deranged babbling from the inside of a jail cell.
The first step is for people to start pressing charges whenever a leftist assaults them.
It would be good to have people start filming likely targets of leftist violence too, so that the assaults can later be proven in court.
They will claim martyrdom and write political books while in jail.
Hitler wrote Meinkampf in jail, you know; but then Nelson Mandela also wrote in jail.
If you jail these milkshakers, they will probably identify with Mandela but not Hitler in their indignation at being jailed for throwing a milkshake as a form of political expression.
But, ultimately, I agree with you that throwing a milkshake at another person is just a form of assault that should be treated as such. There are less violent ways to express your politics.
