I wonder if you Have actually tried this.
i`have actually tried this, multiple times, in demonstrations in san francisco, in the not so distant past.
the police are quite expert at making things look like it is your fault, once things start to get physical (by their volition. also, the police will lie to you and tell you that it is illegal not to “cooperate.” you might not be “arrested” but you might be “detained” for up to 24 hours.
i am not defending them, but people who choose your option should be warned about how rough it can get if they follow your advice.
You are absolutely correct. This is why, in a previous post I used the word “war” to describe this. “All it takes for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing.”
When you are not one of the compliant sheep, it will not go easy for you. Just ask the Bundy family. But if nobody fights back, nothing changes. i.e. why do they do what they do? Because they can. We need to make it cost them. It’s why I NEVER go through the full body scan. It needs to cost them. And that means it will cost me. So far, it is worth the price.
True. For example, one tactic used to create the appearance that you are escalating it to say, "huh", as if they didn't hear you. When you speak louder, they tell you not to raise your voice.
