Additional Facts​
When tear gas is thrown, try to cover it with a traffic cone and pour water onto it.
cover all unique parts of you so police cannot identify you and take you away
take pics and videos while phone is locked and keep phone on airplane mode so the gov cannot hack in and delete your stuff (yes they are doing this).
maybe bring in a scissor in case the police tie your hands extremely tightly and lock you in a room (they are doing this too)
bring water balloons filled with paint to throw at police so they cannot see (if they get violent)
bring umbrellas in case attacked by rubber bullets
