I’m sure we can find some middle ground between nothing and shoot-the-place-up.

Drag the offenders into the street to be tried by televised mob justice?
Seriously, until multiple people responsible get serious consequences the situation will continue to devolve.

I think 2A folks believe 2A was made for situations like this. When government doesn’t listen to voice of the people.

There’s a difference between 2A folk really. You have the right wing which view it as a tool of power and wield it with little to no responsibility. Then the left as a tool against oppression that one should take care with. There’s far fewer left leaning attacks like this than there is right leaning.
