I will say this though, if you do plan to go to one of these protests have a fucking plan for everything. Have a plan to meet up with your buddies if separated. Have a plan of action if things get squirrelly. Have a plan for dealing with tear gas. Have a plan for dealing with police, for what you’ll do if for whatever reason you’re arrested. Trust your gut, if it feels wrong it is wrong.

Also, do yourselves a huge favor, stay the fuck away from the Black Bloc.

If you see people dressed like this, go somewhere else.
