I would hope we all would.

But the brain is a funny thing. Sometimes we know what we should do and for some reason, we still don't do it. Especially in the heat of the moment, which is different from seeing it days later on tape on the internet.

As for a protest, there's no NFHS mechanism, but I would imagine a state could do it if they so desired. I think they'd be opening one hell of a can of worms if they did.
