 ====== Packing For A Protest ======

-{{ :diy:protest4.jpg?400|}}
 In this article, we'll discuss what you should bring if you're planning to attend a protest. You should get things prepared for a day or two before the protest date, so when the time arrives, you're packed up and ready to go, without forgetting anything. Use a backpack //(ideally one with [[gear:pals|tactical webbing]])// to place your items in so everything is on your person, ready for use if the need arises.

   * Long sleeve shirt or jacket and full length pants. This is to help conceal identifiers such as tattoos, birthmarks, scars or anything else which might give police a way to identify you. Whatever you wear, make sure it's just plain, no wording on the clothing. All-black is generally preferred by many veteran protesters, so that is the ideal choice to blend in with everyone else.
-  * A [[gear:masks|mask]]. Many Anons prefer [[gear:masks:respirator|respirators]] or the common [[gear:masks:N95]]. Wearing a surgical or respirator mask will not only help conceal features, but also reduce your chance of catching whatever infections are circulating. Other Anons prefer military-style masks like [[gear:masks:gaiter|gaiters]], which further obscure facial features //(especially if you have a beard)//.

   * Protective goggles. Protective goggles should be lightweight as you may be wearing them for hours if you stay on the frontlines. In the event police start spraying protesters, these will help with keeping things like pepper spray or tear gas out of your eyes. They'll also help conceal eye color and eyebrows, making it harder to identify you.
