7. Police and media call anything they don't like, a "riot".

This is an extremely slippery slope, and although anonymity is a black bloc tactic, it is not an "if/then" for violence. Anonymity is a tactic, and considering the ugliness of our enemies, a very good one.

Everyone knows about section 1021 in the NDAA, correct? Indefinite detention without trial or lawyer if you are suspected of being a terrorist or aiding them or even being connected...and I believe a DOJ report classified protesting as low-level terrorism. These are the days of 64 drone bases on US soil, of militarized police, of Federal-level spying upon citizens.

And if someone is an undercover cop, acting weirdly or being violent, step away from them immediately. Call them out. Fuck police agents provacateurs.
