Preparation or Self defense tactics in a civic disobedience (protest) situation?

http://www.zinelibrary.info has some guides on the subject. Just do a search there for things like “protest defense” and such.

Also, bring some olive oil. Something in olive oil neutralizes hot pepper oils. I don’t know if it’ll work if actual mace is used.

Edit: I just saw on your profile that you’re in Hong Kong, so that site might be blocked. I’ll see if I can PM you some useful info from zines.

Activist Ethics

@marinelife I love that the guide has a Ramona Africa quote, and a damn good one.

It’s a shame SmashTheState seems to have left Fluther, I bet he has some great resources.

Thanks – Hong Kong is (thankfully), a place where there is freedom of internet.
So I should be able to access any websites you guys link to.

Edit: though the more specific the links are, the more helpful it is….

@lifeflame Great! If you have some time, I also recommend Peter Gelderloos’s book “How Nonviolence Protects the State”, which I think the site I linked to has. It’s got some great points to consider in terms of protesting.

You guys on here sometimes remind me of Jerry Rubin and his “Revolution for the hell of it.”

@CaptainHarley Thanks? I think?
