    O please. Get a grip. You’ll get yourself shot. Or you’ll shot a cop, and give an excuse for even more violence and state repression. Individuals can’t fight their way out of repressive regimes.

    Get a camera, set it to record to a remote location, preferable a data center in another country. What we really need are tech volunteers to start setting up these types of digital cameras in ethnic neighborhoods to document what is happening.

      The same army we would be fighting got their asses handed to them by insurgents in Vietnam and Afghanistan

      Where did you hear this? You are flat-out wrong, thousands of examples prove this statement to be totally untrue.

      Also, there’s usually much more to it than simply fighting, it’s rarely “peaceful protest” or “fighting” alone.

      But they can film their way out of one?

      1. Happy to lend tech expertise where needed, let me know

      2. If an unidentified masked person is harassing me on my property I’m not just going to let it happen but make sure it is recorded.
