  Lawyers operate in courts. We don’t have due process anymore.

    Then as I said we’re already cooked. But also that is demonstrably false anyway. Our judiciary is under heavy threat, but still functioning

      Barely functionning isn’t good enough, it has to be beyond reproach but today it has daily miscarriages.

    Just go out wearing a MAGA hat. They only have small brains it’ll probably confuse them. They only have small brains it’ll probably confuse them.

    Like how insects are always pretending to be wasps so they don’t get eaten, see it’s scientific.

      Or even just dress how they’d expect their own to dress, don’t even need a dumbass hat. I wear an old tan leather jacket and a Swedish combat cap which apparently translates to friend for them. Also applies to the anarchists though, they see my clothes as friendly.

  Police issues a dispersal order, but blocks all routes to safely leave the area.

  Congratulations, you will now be charged as having committed a crime and good luck proving in a court that there was no realistic option for you to leave.

  Also police seizes your phone. Congratulations now they access your data and either go after people you have had contact with or they claim you to be part of a criminal organization as they pin other charges on people they found a connection with.

    I doubt they will find anything of use. The most powerful thing I can do is slow them down. It’s rhe best use of my privilege
