I dunno, man, the guy threatened violence repeatedly, and the Coast Guard managed to non-violently de-escalate the whole thing, and get himself to peacefully surrender. At least in this case, they handled it exactly the way they should have.
Coast guard also responds to stuff like oil and haz spills and enforces environmental laws to protect endangered marine species. I think they’re pretty OK.
ACAB includes the Coast Guard
