11. Are you marching in the middle or on the outside?

Placement in the march is important, especially at the beginning.

If you are marching with children, I would say you need to be on the edges of the line. A quick exit with them is imperative.

If things go south and you are in the middle, be prepared to be targeted. As Dunc says have a bandana, water, bandages, etc. If you are a senior citizen - this is not the place for you. If you have a disability - this is not the place for you. Move to the outside.

If you are on the outside, know your first, second, third exits. Police will try to funnel everyone into a small area. If you see this - exit immediately.

If you are confronted by police - do not resist. If you are arrested (fairly or not) do not resist.

Absolutely under no circumstances do you engage with MAGA. Ignore them - hard as that is.

I pray everything goes smoothly and everyone goes home unscathed.

Light and love

Rose
