The instant the rioters threaten their McMansions is when the gloves come off. As long as it's far removed from them it's just a stupid rhetorical game, the political class doesn't see the rioters as a threat to anyone except poor shmucks who live in deep blue cities. They probably think the statues are just symbols which should be left to the symbol-minded because the elite has stopped caring about the arts since the 60s (how else could they have degenerated into a money-laundering scheme?).
What, you think the military is going to go full "Vive le revolution!" because some brass put out some vague virtue signals, while the MSM tells the brown hordes to go hack up Suburbia with machetes and rifles like the farm massacres in ANC South Africa?
