Well the answer is you CAN do anything, but you likely will get shot/choked to death/your head smashed in and blamed on you. Your best bet is to peacefully assemble in opposition if you dont want to get hurt, and even then ymmv.

If you don't want to get hurt, the best option is to be supported by heavily armed calm protestors. Unarmed protests have been repeatedly attacked by out of control police and ICE.
