They are doing exactly what they were hired to do, which is cause terror and create a violent atmosphere to provoke reaction.
The Trump administration wants citizens to act against the agents so they have an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act.

A red Ford Pinto hatchback angles across a narrow gravel forest service road, a blue enduro motorcycle on a rear hitch carrier. Tall firs frame the view. Beyond them, a towering ash cloud from a pyroclastic density flow billows skyward. Photo by Richard Kent Lasher, May 18, 1980.

They were so ready to use zero information to push an agenda. Par for the course, unfortunately.
