We're kind of seeing something equivalent to pogroms with the way anti-trans legislation is being used to force trans people to flee even if it doesn't pass.
Dems just call the cops, though. They don't like to dirty their hands.
I think a lot of Americans are ready to do direct violence, but are being held back by pretty strong social taboos against it. The cops jealously guard their own monopoly on violence and power. And when some chud does take matters into their own hands, it seems to surprise them when they get clapped by the justice system. The desired dynamic seems to be "you call the cops, and then the cops do the violence".
The USA is getting pogroms,huh?
