For a couple of "badasses" these gym owners sure are letting the gov do whatever they want to them.

Resisting the government and fighting the government are two very different things. One gets the local PD out to harass you, the other leads to federal agents and swat teams.

One only requires a few good men for a protest, the other requires a small army with both civilian and military support.

Neither is without consequences.

Always avoid the fights that get you killed. Being a martyr isn't winning, and you won't feel like a fantasy action hero while you're bleeding out on the pavement or in prison facing the death penalty for armed resistance.

You win by 1. avoiding battles that lead to absolute defeat, 2. fighting the battles you can win, 3. lasting longer than your opponent.

Hes fighting on the legal and political front. If he didn't believe it could work, he wouldn't be doing it. Good for him. Hes gonna win millions from this and become a permanent thorn in their side.

Absolute defeat for one may be the beginning of the battle for others
