The anonymity of the mob.  Up until very recently it was sufficient defense.

Except they refused to wear masks even though it's now commonly accepted practice and posted selfies on Facebook and Instagram. Clearly they were not going for anonymity.

As an aside I remember on the news they kept talking about pipe bombs set at the DNC and RNC on Jan. 6. The person on video performing the act had the good sense to wear a mask and as far as I know they're still at large.
