We aren’t helpless here, we also aren’t just stuck with voting and hoping our representatives don’t cave from coordinated money.

My suggestion is all of us here plan to go trick or treating this upcoming Halloween before sunset, dressed up as the police. Make your costume as realistic to your local as possible, which is why I’m bringing it up 6 months in advance, so we have time to put together our cosplays. On the day, make sure to scrub heavily when you shower. Consider rubbing alcohol afterwards. You want to mask your scent. Wear some shitty cologne you would never normally wear. Or Axe. Wear a lot of it. The whole can.

While out on the streets as you run into more faux police, band together, figure out an escape route and go attack the crows. Throw rocks. Unfortunately, for this to truly work you need to actually hurt them. Crows never forget and crows never forgive. And if you too suffer under heavy handed fascist police well, you can in fact make the job almost untenable and miserable for them to do. It’s underhanded but the reality is, your values don’t dictate decorum. Decorum is defined by what the other side does. You should have other values that keep you from going full Machiavelli, but seeing as your opponents don’t, you needn’t worry about offending yours. Copsll kill ya for getting ice in a motel hallway, they deserve any and every misfortune that befalls them.

Bonus tip; wearing suits around a courthouse (or wall street) and doing the same carries the same spirit.
