Everyone thinks like that at first! It's the media coverage that blocks the maneuver. I recall an incident where a guy had used a tube and a car in much the same way, he was under the vehicle and there was no way to get him out. The cops tried everything and he held fast. Finally one became so frustrated he ordered the car towed, with the man still attached. Cooler heads fortunatly prevailed and they got him out some other way.

The idea of these protests is to get on the 6:00 o'clock news, so their story can be told. Once that is accomplished, the mission is accomplished. The people that do this know in advance they will be tortured to some degree and then jailed, they volunteer anyway because they feel so strongly for their cause.
