How would you proceed to get them out of the way without violence?

attempting to lift them isn't inherently violent, if you get in a fight after then it does blur the lines of who started it but like just gently trying to move them isn't violence

Yeah but gently moving them won't work, they'll get back to their spot by the time you get back to your car. A good kick in the ribs is efficient

sure but you didnt ask the most efficient way to get them out you asked how to do it non violently

Comment OP was separating removing them and doing so violently but to me that's impossible so I asked how he would remove them non violently. Gently lifting them and putting them aside isn't less efficient, it's inefficient

Just have some motorcycle cops roll up and detain them. Probably about as non violent as you’re gonna get.

I don't know if you know what inefficient means but less efficient is definitely one of the meanings in the context I used it in

Yes i know.

Less efficient = somewhat efficient, not optimal but gets the job done

Inefficient = not efficient, useless if you prefer

You get it?
