I'm wondering what people think this "de-arresting strategy" is supposed to look like, exactly.

If you think you're going to get anyone who's just been kidnapped out of the back of the black SUV, you're going to need to turn up with more guys than they've got at minimum, and very quickly.

That's exactly how it works. You don't let them get to the back of the SUV in the first place, but there are more of us than there are of them.
