that is so subjective you can be fucked in a moment with it even if cop is on your side the city can push against it
*ie they will)
Does anyone need a shield?
But it's ok to open carry a knife 🤔

God, do I know that feel... they won't even show up when I invite them to my home.
They didn't even send the shit in the mail they promised to prank me with
Umbrellas
Bring one
Besides rain protection they can be used as a weapon, you can hide your face from media if we walk past them, they can offer you or a wounded comrade shade, etc
Definitely good for rain at least. I would also avoid wearing all this stuff right away if you bring it. We don't want to look like larping idiots in a field
If things get out of hand a helmet/shield/goggles might come in handy but just standing around in that outfit will look pretty ridiculous imo
@johncolt
Exactly.
I'll have my gloves on, because it takes some time to get them on properly and we may need to respond to a very sudden attack, but plan to have my goggles, mouthguard, et al. stowed in my hydration pack.
Let the reds be seen as the ones who showed up looking to start a fight, as opposed to simply prepared for one
Yup. We want more and more "regular" Americans to feel comfortable joining our ranks. And looking like autists does not advance that goal.
Nothing against autists, just look normal!
remember that newspapers can be your greatest ally
We need better OPTICS ! ! !
