Start by not talking to cops, even if they’re just potential cops.
I mean, I’m aware that’s considered good advice in general. FWIW though I’m assuming this is with 20+ protesters standing in easy earshot, not a private 1:1 conversation. Maybe there are better questions, or someone else should ask? Or is it better to ignore the potential cop? I feel like other protesters would want to be aware who is hiding among them.
I think the point here is to be aware of a combination of these items. e.g. If the person has a vest (more noticeable), they might also be wearing a wire (less obvious).
I’m not sure there’s a good excuse to bring handcuffs to a protest. Nothing wrong with being kinky IMO, but leave that shit at home.
So are you saying that asking questions (maybe not these specific ones) wouldn’t be helpful here? If so, what do you propose instead? Ignore the person? Notify the protest organizers?
Ok, what’s a better way then? I flat out told you I don’t have experience with this.
I have no real experience with this IRL (so probably means I’m in the target audience) but I understood the graphic to just be a starting point.
Couldn’t it just be resolved with a simple follow-up conversation? e.g.
“Hey you’re not a cop, are you?”
“No way man”
“Ok, lift up your shirt for a sec.”
If he won’t, he’s probably wearing a vest and/or wire.
Or alternative scenario: “Hey you’re welcome to join, but you gotta ditch the handcuffs.”
“What, you mean this tin of sour candy?”
Ha, this one actually made me laugh out loud
Fruits from the genus Garcinia (mangosteen, achacha, and related). They’re supposedly some of the best tasting fruit ever, but very hard to find in the US aside from specialty growers in Cali or Miami.
