Because if they did not have a warrant the subjects could have just told them "No" and then gotten rid of the evidence before the authgorities got a warrant.

To me the optics are bad to pull guns on peacefull protestors, but that is just a matter of indivdual opinion.
I am not saying these people are guilty of anything. We simply do not know all the facts. These people may have made terroristic threats with these weapons or something else we don't know about. Even their own neighbors say they are aggressive assholes.
If they have not broken any laws then they should get their guns back.
