General advices:
- Take a bottle of water with you.
- Do not attack the Police.
- Take black spray or paint with you in case the police tries attacking you with the armored vehicles.
- Be creative, think of making some woodblocks with nails in it so it tear the tires of the armored vehicles in case they attack you.
- Think of some tool to disjoin and then rejoin again easily finding the gatherings easily, you might think of green laser or whatever to sign to each other, you might think of developing a fast code to use in your communications.
- Before going to a certain place try asking the people you know there to remove the passwords from their wireless access points to be used if there is a mobile blockade.
- Try to gather in side streets first until numbers increased heavily before showing up in main streets/squares.
- Try avoiding clashes with the Police.
- Try pointing out any intruders (Police disguised in civilian clothes or thugs).
- Do not wreak havoc.
- Take care of yourself.
- This is not a fun trip, you might not get back alive, but, nobody get out of this life alive anyways.
