This is I think an under-remarked bit from Hobby Lobby way back, when the majority decision made claims about birth control being abortifacient which were incorrect. If the court just says courts don't have to burden themselves with evidence, then they themselves get to pick whatever citations.

That is to say, if you're told not to do something/wear something/chant something by a protest marshal & they don't cite a reason beyond "that's not what we're about", get the fuck away from them: yellow vests *can* often be only 1 step removed from blue vests (police liaison officers)

The military ban is a shameful product of the nyt’s anti-trans campaign. It amplified and gave a sheen of legitimacy to right-wing propaganda, denying trans ppl a voice and demonizing us at every step. As w Trump’s ban, the nyt’s coverage was built on raw animus.
The nyt doesn’t disguise its hate.

Many of the LA Sheriffs didn't have their gas masks on yet so the Sheriffs got gassed by LAPD
LAPD was on the radio crying about getting shot by rubber bullets by the sheriffs, so I'd say fair trade
Typical level of professional policing for Los Angeles. Waiting for CHP to join the fun.

From the scanner right now: LAPD is taking rubber bullets from LASD. I am not joking. (They're in each other's crossfire, it's a clusterfuck that they've largely brought on themselves)

The best thing you can wear on Saturday is regular clothes. Police are a lot more hesitant to beat up someone who looks like the folks you run into at the grocery store
This keeps you safe, but it also keeps the entire protest safe. It makes cops think twice about, say, tear gassing everyone

What follows is mostly geared towards people who don’t have a ton of protest experience and don’t fancy getting gassed or arrested. Take what makes sense to you, leave the rest
