I think the analogy is perfectly appropriate, though, technically you are right that he did not specifically address your point.

I love snarky jpegs. They help to literally illustrate my points.
Attacking them would be like attacking protesters having a sit in at a restaurant. It would be assault.

Call the police immediately and then cooperate with the police when they get there. Until then, act responsibly. The best way to stop a protester is to meet them with equal force. If they try to board your ship, get between them and getting on. If they move towards sensitive parts of the ship, put yourself between them and that part of the ship. Only take reactive action, and you've already won. It's really that simple.
