Don't bring your phone to the protest

Wear your most generic, mass-produced, non-identifiable clothes

Wear running shoes

N95's are a good idea for many reasons

Water in a bottle with no stickers

Don't RSVP with anyone beforehand

Tell a friend when you expect to be back

Be safe, don't get hurt, don't let them put you in the cop car

Give them hell

And if you get arrested, keep your mouth shut.

"I demand a lawyer" and then clam up.

@researchfairy I don't know about other places but I tend to write lawyer and/or arrested persons rights group phone numbers on my arm in indelible marker just in case I am arrested so I have it *if* I get my legally mandated phonecall.
@researchfairy Before heading out, write your legal/emergency phone number(s) in permanent marker somewhere on your body you can read if handcuffed.

Write your lawyer's number and a friend's number on your body
