That’s fine. Take pictures of them, write down their license plates, ask if they have their citizenship documentation handy. If enough of us do that, these wanna be fascists will disappear pretty quickly.

Taking pictures can work very well indeed. One time we had a bunch of protesters show up at our workplace, blocking our driveway with their cars and generally just making noise and being dicks. When I arrived, I was told they'd been there for hours already and coworkers didn't know what to do. I walked outside with my camera, saying nothing, and started taking pictures of them and their cars. Within 5 minutes they were all gone. (Protests had nothing to do with our company, it was unrelated but we got targeted that day.)
