It helps that most police departments don't punish anyone for using any of their "less than lethals" incorrectly. Pretty much all of them (beanbag/rubberbullets/tear gas, dowel rounds etc etc) are meant to be fired into the air or skipped. Almost no one does that.

Young woman trying to get home gets shot, very close range, very much on purpose, with whatever is in the guns.

#Rubberbullets are not harmless, they do real damage and can kill!

#Trump is attacking USA citizens.

The situation between the LA-protesters and unlawful acting Ice-agents is well comparable to the situation between Ukraine and Russia. It's plain stupid to expect folks to stay peaceful when they get shot at with pepperspray-filled rubberbullets or cruise missiles and Shahed-drones. No to #facism !!
