I mean, people is another matter. Nobody really wants to hurt innocent bystanders.

But there are so many things! There ain't enough cops to protect them all!

Banks are everywhere, they have windows, and bricks are not expensive.

Walmart and Amazon got their vehicles going by every day, multiple times a day. How easy is it to set a damn van on fire?

This might sound crazy, but everywhere I look these days all I see is the unattended property of the super-rich, just waiting for somebody to take a match to it.

Am I missing something here? What's the obstacle to doing this? Why is everything not on fire right now?

Dude you need some Physics 101, maybe, lol

But please, no more forests on fire.

here, i'll tweak your prompt slightly and maybe we can tease out the problem?

"But there are so many [cops]! There ain't enough cops to protect them all!

[Cops] are everywhere, they have [faces], and [punches] are not expensive.

Walmart and Amazon got their [cops going by every day, multiple times a day. How easy is it to [punch a damned cop]?

This might sound crazy, but everywhere I look these days all I see is the [cops] of the super-rich, just waiting for somebody to [punch them].

Am I missing something here? What's the obstacle to doing this? Why is every [cop] not [getting punched] right now?"

the problem becomes more clear once i remove the assumption of perfect ninja backflip where you stick the landing every single time

"Am I missing something here?"

Yes, it's called social theory, and i realize that many people disdain it as boring, privileged, outdated, authoritarian, etc... but without it you just run around asking questions like this

It might also help you reflect on why this kind of unbridled lust for destruction is expressed not only by some anarchists, but by some of the most horrible elements of the right wing fringe
