For the no kings march some suggestions.
Just a dyslexic bad punctuation ramble yet also suggestions on how we do this peacefully and move forward and get to Sunday morning.
Get a burner phone if able leave your regular phone at home.
Take a back pack.
Water a few bottles.
Some basic first aid supplies.
Take cash if you can do not use your banking card.
Food perhaps some of those nutritional bars.
If you take prescription drugs perhaps take three day supply.
If you wear contacts probably be best to just wear your glasses may wanna carry spare set of glasses as well.
May want to carry large goggles that fit over your eyewear or just to protect your eyes in event of tear gas.
Wear comfortable loose fitting clothing it’s going to be warm weather air needs to circulate.
Maybe carry rain jacket.
Probably should not wear shorts.
Footgear no sandals try to wear sneakers or closed toe shoes.
Bandanna try using old t shirt to cut up as it’s larger more comfortable. Should probably have several bandannas just in case a stranger may need one in case of gas.
If it goes hot then sit down to show that you are not a threat.
If you find yourself under attack with tear gas wet your bandanna then tie it back around your face real tight use water to rinse your eyes out.
Google Earth the area you think you will be at then expand the map and study it make a mental map in case you have to exit out another way.
If you’re in group go over designated rally points in case you get separated so you can hookup and regroup probably best to have a primary rally point and secondary.
When you get to your sector check it out with your mental map from landmarks that you studied earlier just in case you have to move out.
Also identify anyone who may need assistance even if you do not know them.
You don’t have to go up introduce yourself to them. Yet just keep eyes on them just in case.
Also look for public trash bins or orange marker cones that are near by.
Reason if canisters of gas start flying.
Put trash bins over gas canister or the orange cones preferably a cone then you can pour water into cone to extinguish canister.
If you do come into contact with tear gas just move away don’t kick the canister away from you.
In that may just cause someone else harm that isn’t as self aware we all gotta take care of each other even strangers on this one.
Remember their side will have people planted among us who will be calling for violence against the authorities as we protest peacefully.
The authorities who are just doing their jobs probably thinking shit I’d sooner be home having a BBQ.
As i said these are just suggestions I’m not trying to tell you how to run your show.
We did not ask for this shit yet here we are and we gotta deal with it yet we do it peacefully.
= new reply since forum marked as read
It can be done. When you see the cops confronting someone, move up and link arms. Add as many people as you can and preserve the chain. When you sit do it as a unit and force the cops to take you all on at once.
And from an old Punk: Steel toed boots are recommended, Doc Martins if steel toes not avaiiable.
Look for the helpers! 
Esp the advice to plan alternate means of egress & to scope out the area & how to use trash cans & cones.
Stay safe, all & ppease leave your dogs home!
