Everyday they push a little further, being aggressively controversial, it is a test. No one is stopping them, and they are winning.
One of my favorite stories of the week:

“Fight over soda at East Dallas apartment sends pillow, glass jar, chicken flying (and tire iron)”

“and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”
Yes, I do think they are probing our defenses in a way.
But they are also telling us what they think and what their plans are and, in doing so, they are certainly hardening our resolve...evidence of which is the shortage of weapons and ammo in stores and online.
