Alright, so I've never been to a rally, protest, organized resistance, whatever you want to call it. But still, looking from the outside, what's the point? Smashing some windows, getting arrested...does that really solve anything, other than indicating how pissed off, and ultimately riddiculously stupid and mob-oriented, people are?
I'd love to hear some EFFECTIVE suggestions.
Here are mine:
PR stunt: Get someone dressed up real nice- clean cute, shaven, suit, tie, buff the shoes, the works. Have a few shooters (VIDEOCAMERAs) discretely taping every second, and maybe throw a bug or two on them. Have the dummy (literally) get picked up by the pigs- walking down a closed street, through a riot zone, whatever. Do it again and again until you get a response. Record and then publish the whole thing as a negative PR smear on cops.
The only problem is, you need someone clean-cut who can take a hit. When I get back to the states, if I'm not busy, I'll volunteer, assuming I can find a trust-worthy video crew.
Also, as someone mentioned an upcoming IMF meeting in April in DC- DONT SHOW. Seriously, just have a few guys show up, shoot some vids and pics, and then get out. Show absolutely overwhelming police prescence, without any real need. Again, negative PR. But all of this "we can beat the cops" shit is riddiculous- violence begets violence, and when it comes down to it, they've got more guns. And they've got a history of killing. Do you want to really go head-to-head against that?
