Non-violent protests in large numbers would be one option. It is much harder to get the military or police to shoot a crowd of a few tens of thousands of unarmed civilians, especially when it is people from their own communities. And when you do it anyway you have a very hard time suppressing it in your and the international media.
You will still be shot and abducted. It will not be any harder for the cops.
What do non-violent "protests" do? Why would police ever really try to supress them if they don't serve any purpose other than virtue signalling? Do you protesters expect Trump to stop ICE raids because "wow, I guess these signs with me drawn as a pig are really making me think", or MAGA supporters to stop voting for him because you wasted your sunday out in the sun walking around?
What do shootings do? Do you genuinely believe a couple of people with handguns or rifles are going to achieve anything at all?
Shinzo Abe would like a word.
One did when they assassinated Kennedy. One did when they assassinated Lincoln.
I sincerely hope Trump will not end up being revered decades or centuries later like those two presidents.
