This is not "pff, violence won't happen". That's a subjective assessment. It's "okay, violence could happen, that would be fantastic for us! Let's send our employees so that we can use that as an argueing point!" (always good to make the other guy look like a violent thug). All in the context of Uber intentionally breaking the law (which is not my assessment, it's their own, and that of the French authorities).
