2) if you have a bike, use it to scout. Drive around main roads and look for...

3) Don’t try to fight the cops head on. You will lose. Harass them and disperse, or have someone quick hit them from a side street.

Standing in front of cops like this without any barricades to prevent direct confrontation is going to get y’all killed sooner or later. Hands should not be idle. Keep building stuff to keep your frontliners safe.
