Megaphone: "Avoid <indistinct>, the cops have it completely <indistinct>"
This mobile crowd has excellent organization. It doesn't take a LOT of people to do this, especially if you can reliably pass broad messages like this to the crowd at large.

Someone just got chased off, apparently because he is a J6 shithead.
Good job, L.A. They *shouldn't* feel safe in your crowd¹. Because, fundamentally, CHUDs want to kill your crowd. Remove ASAP.
¹ "crowd" explicitly may refer to a more abstract organizational community. Anything from a book club to a union meets this

Plenty of people in these crowds paid attention during the 2014 and 2019/2020 protests in Hong Kong.
If you're going to gear up, any is better than none, and more is usually safer than less against police violence.
A K95 mask is safer than no mask.
A respirator is safer than a K95.
A full-face mask *may*¹ be safer than a respirator.
¹ it is against gas, but it may be more vulnerable to ballistic rounds, depending on its rating. I am not an authority on this, so get a second opinion! But the material does matter with any barrier against kinetic weapons, and a certification is necessary for any faith in it. Does it have certified testing of its ability to stop a projectile? That's a good sign.
I'm so excited to be growing my #MutualAid emergency communications for disaster relief network! Tonight I met with a bunch of awesome new folks who are interested in learning #HamRadio and #Meshtastic and being part of planning our responses to future natural and unnatural disasters. I am honored to be able to teach them and plan with them this summer.

@kcarruthers So in other words there's no way Labor are doing any of that. They'll only start looking in to it after the default happens. #USPol #AusPol #BePrepared

First thing that dies if US defaults is dollar denominated trade & the SWIFT system
If I was a leader in a major nation state I’d have folks wargaming what we should do if/when the US defaults on its national debt and be making plans apace. #USpol #BePrepared

This groundhog isn’t leaving his big day to chance—he’s using AI to schedule his wake-up call and shadow check!
No more last-minute weather guesswork. If a groundhog can optimize its routine with AI, what’s your excuse?
AI is wild and it’s time to work smarter, not harder, let https://zurl.co/d0e8x help!
Has everyone here in the US made plans for Anne Frank to have an extended sleepover yet? Also, do you have somewhere planned out where you yourself can stay for a while if need be?
"Why do you carry 'XYZ'?"
I just think it is prudent for every person to be prepared for various scenarios they may encounter in life. To have flexibility to respond appropriately.
Also I was a Scout. "Be Prepared" is literally the motto.
#BePrepared. This has happened once before in #American history. Robber barons wanted slaves, the people wanted a living wage, and the barons bought police and members of the military to beat the people into submission. And failed, leading to 50+ years of prosperity. The barons are back.

Periodic reminder: If you're skipping steps 2-n, you really only have a concept of a plan.

@jeffowski Also:
* Tampons => Pokey Wounds.
* Maxi Pads => Slashey Wounds.
They *work* (used both in the field in a pinch) and they're usually handy.
I see in this thread much pearl-clutching vis-a-vis Shootings, but all of these tools work for Everyday sort of stuff, like say, a construction site, or extended camping trip. People get hurt and bleed all the time from things other than gunshot wounds (tampons and packing tape).
Ever seen a hiker fall and get skewered by a stick?
