Fuck it-
Hong Kong Style Barricades:

1. Anything works. Anything. Grab big things. Garbage cans, poles, sticks, whatever you can find.
2. Lash shit together with ropes.
3. Stack bricks on pavement to force cop cars to take alternate routes cuz they won't be able to drive thru.

4. Zipties work too.
5. Get people to help you drag shit.
6. Don't worry about how durable the barricades are. Just build them before the cop cars show up. Build fast.
7. Tree branches work too. You might need to go out of your way to find.
8. Fire (molotov/oil+flammables) makes the barricades very strong temporarily but destroys them afterwards. Use with discretion. It forces the Fire department to show up (can be tactical)
9. Loot a grocery store and grab shopping carts, those are some damn good barricades.
10. Construction sites are full of bulky things you can use, cans of paint, lumber, piping, sand bags, anything works.
11. EVEN DURIANS WORK, BE CREATIVE!

More thoughts:

13. DON'T bother defending barricades. They are meant to slow down cops, not as tactical points of defense.

14. Office buildings have these office partitions things, rip those mfers out and use em.

TY to all HK comrades for these ideas.
Oh yes, and consider the INCREDIBLE POWER OF CLINGWRAP.

15. Grab a big ass roll of cling wrap. Wrap it between two poles/secure objects, over and over, until it becomes an invisible stretchy barrier. https://twitter.com/ginkgogoes/status/1265829862478016512?s=20
