There are at least a couple hundred LN's roaming around, watching, etc. So, a LN, just being a moron, not doing it on purpose, rides his bike right thru the VCP. Shooting him is not an option. MACP here we come. Hypothetically, he is grabbed off the bike with a Rear Naked Choke, and quickly put unconcious. All the LN's are waiting to see what was going to happen to decide how to react. The guy on the bike is searched and is pulled off to the side to be awakened.

I may be showing my neo-Neanderthal roots here, but my solution to the above problem is knock the guy off the bike (easy to do, and will also take a little of the fight out of him in the first place), have a few guys flex-cuff him (which doesn't require an armbar or choke to accomplish), execute the search, explain how close to being killed he came by being careless, then release him. The onlookers see that VCP security enforcement is serious business and infractions are taken very seriously, all the while giving the original violator a physical lesson he'll not soon forget, but not causing serious permanent injury to him. All the above not requiring any special BJJ-based groundfighting skill.
To be truthful, I'd be more concerned that the guy performing the rear naked choke hold in your scenario is familiar with the choke, but when you add in the adrenaline, stress, and angles and force vectors involved with pulling the guy off a moving bike while trying to apply a choke at the same time will result in an unintentional broken neck (a la the rear strangle takedown).
