In addition, you should:
Food & water
Getting your food supply ready. Have at least a four week (1 month) sufficient supply of non-perishable food on hand. Focus on high-nutritional foods that require no refrigeration, preparation or cooking and little or no water.
Your food supply might include:
Other essentials include:
getting special assistance
Find out about any special assistance that may be available in your community. Create a network of neighbors, relatives, friends and co-workers to aid you in an emergency. Discuss with them your needs and make sure they know how to operate any necessary equipment. If you live in an apartment building, ask the man- agement to clearly mark accessible exits and to make arrangements to help you evacuate the building. Identify people with special skills such as doctors, nurses, bus drivers, etc.
create a “take box”
The take box should have everything you need to reconstruct your life in the event you evacuate and everything is lost. Passports; birth, wedding, adoption, divorce, and armed service separation certificates; copies of insurance policies; mortgage information; house and car title; large purchase receipts. You get the idea. If you have a scanner, save yourself space and heartbreak by scanning family albums and images of other keepsakes, burn those to CD and keep a copy in your take box, or make a copy of all your pictures, videos, music and documents on a external hard drive that you can keep in your take box. But remember that CDs can malfunction. Make sure you take along the original documents - if possible, make copies of them and host them online using Photobucket or Imageshack.
additional security tips
- Protection begins with protecting yourself. - Ensure that you have adequate head protection (even a saucepan is something, but a hardhat or bicycle/motorcycle helmet is best) but the minimum is a baseball cap or other hat. - Safety goggles for the eyes if available, or sunglasses if it’s all you can find. - A kerchief for the nose and mouth. - Good solid shoes that are comfortable for walking long distances. Steelcaps/Steel Toe/ Steel Shank boots, will protect your feet from broken glass, nails, and even possibly an electrocution (because of the rubber sole), they are however very dangerous in cold weather as steel toes will draw in the cold air, not insulate as well, and possibly lead to frostbite and/or lost toes. If borrow- ing shoes, ensure that they are the right size as blisters can get infected very quickly and will hinder you. If you are prone to blisters,
apply paper tape (tape used to hold dress- ings in place; can be found at most phar- macies) or band-aids to areas where you normally get blisters before you leave.
That reduces the time you are exposed to guns and knifes, and there is less time in which you could get killed, injured or have the situation escalate. The best way to avoid beeing robbed or your house looted is not to raise any desires to do so:
looting and robbery
Generally, if they don’t want to take your life, body parts or rape you (especially if they are armed) the best way out is to give the robbers what they want.
How to deal with violent riots
Be prepared. If you know an area is ripe for a riot but you can’t avoid traveling there, take these simple precautions to protect yourself. Wear clothes that minimize the amount of exposed skin, long pants and long-sleeve shirts and good walking shoes when going out, and think about your possible escape routes and safe havens before anything actually happens. Carry small cash with you in case you need to quickly arrange transportation, pay off looters, or bribe the police at a checkpoint. Do not conceal all the cash in one place. Place portions around the body. In shoes, underpants, pinned to inside lining etc. If you’re traveling abroad, register with your country’s consulate and carry your passport and/or visa with you at all times.
Remain calm. Riots bring about intense emotions, and if you want to survive one you’d better keep yours in check. Your adrenaline and survival instincts will kick in, but try to think rationally, calmly and pursue safety methodically.
Don’t take Sides. If you’re caught up in a riot, don’t take sides. Try to look as inconspicuous as possible, and slowly and carefully move to the outside of the mob. Stay close to walls or other protective barriers if possible.
Avoid being hit by riot control chemicals. Police may deploy riot control agents (tear gas, for example) to disperse a crowd. These chemicals can cause severe pain, respiratory distress, and blind- ness. Try to stay away from the front lines of a riot, and learn to recognize the signs that a riot control agent has been used and how to handle exposure.
Move away from the riot. The more time you spend in the midst of a riot, the greater your chance of being injured or killed. That said, in most circumstances it’s better to move out of a riot slowly. If you run, you will draw attention to yourself, so it’s usually best to walk. It is dangerous to stand out in a crowd. Move with the crowd at the same pace, so go with the flow until you are able to escape into a doorway or up a side street or alley. It may also be advantageous to stay with the crowd until you are certain you can safely escape
because it will help you remain inconspicuous and improve your odds of survival if shots are fired.
Think of crowd movement like currents in the ocean. In a large riot, the crowd in the middle will be moving faster than the people on the perimeters. Thus, if you find yourself in the middle, you should not try to move in a different direction, but follow the flow and slowly make your way to the outside. This requires patience in order to work properly. Never move against the flow of a crowd, even if a stampede begins - this is how many people are seriously injured in peaceful crowds.
If you get caught up in a stampede, try to move in a diagonal direction, with the flow, towards the edges of the stampede. Avoid falling to the ground under any circumstances.
Avoid major roads. Major roads, squares, and other high traffic areas are likely to be crowded with rioters. If possible, stick to less-traveled side streets to avoid the mobs.
Travel at night If you can’t avoid to travel, do it preferably on moonless or overcast (cloudy) nights. Don’t walk across big, open or well lit places.
Avoid public transportation. Buses, subways, and trains will likely be out of service, and stations and depots will probably be packed with people. Even if you succeed in getting on a train or bus, rioters may stop it. Subway stations are particularly bad places to be, both because they are generally difficult to escape and because riot control agents (tear gas for example) are generally heavier than air and may drift down into subway stations and accumulate there.
Don’t stop your car. If you’re lucky enough to have a car that you can drive away from the riot, drive quickly and try not to stop for anything until you’ve reached some- place you know is safe. Drive through or around crowds that block your escape route at a moderate speed. If you honk your horn and drive by carefully they should get out of the way. Keep the car doors locked and the windows rolled up.
Driving towards Police lines can be interpreted by the Police as a preparation to use the car as a weapon against them. Police are trained and pre- pared to protect themselves against deadly threats meaning that you may be shot at if they think you are going to run them down with a car. Wait for the police to signal you to approach before doing so.
Activist may precieve your cars as a threat as there have been numerous cases of irate non-participants running down protesters. Any pushing though the crowd should be done with the demeanor of patience, aggression may lead to an attempt to dis- able your car before it is used as a weapon.
occupies at least 20 of them, and the cries of the injured will strike terror in the hearts of the others. Their morale will suffer and they become easier to subdue.
that well lead them to panic i.e. crying, yell- ing etc. This will avoid unwanted attention by enemy forces, and keep the morale up.
Protesting violent opponents
“Out of Control” protest behaviour
Concept The concept of “Out of Control” is based on a de- centralized organisation structure and uncontrolled movements of the crowd, as well as surrounding police lines and then suddenly appear as a crowd, similar to a flashmob. The protest participants try to spread out and reunite at a different places to try to hide the borders between protesters in an envi- ronment with this behaviour.
Target A close protest can be controlled and steered quite easy by the police. This concept tries to make the analysis of a protest and its flow difficult for the police. Black Blocking: The Black Block does not need to be affiliated with any group or ideology, it is simply a tactic, and it WORKS. This is both a defense and offensive tactic.

Masks Protect identity. -- If the regime stays in power and your face is recognised during a protest, you can expect repression, imprisonment or even death. Keep your identity hidden when in public! Sunglasses and a scarf over your nose and mouth is a simple means of hiding your identity; if you manage to get hold of mask, then use it. Ensure that you cover any particularly identifying features (e.g. tattoos, scars, birthmarks). If possible, bring extra masks for peo- ple who don’t have one. Protect yourselves against tear gas inhalation/irritation. Add water or vinegar to help with skin irritations caused by tear gas exposure; pour some physiological serum (saline solution) in the eyes to wash them.
Tactics Whether advancing or retreating pull debris (trash cans, dumpsters, burning tires/cars, etc.) behind your path. This will slow down APCs, Police, allow- ing you (being on foot) to maintain mobility. If there are vehicles nearby, usually two or three people can push a normal-sized car easily - you will only need one person to steer it and block off narrow alleys or parts of roads with it.
DON’T GET TRAPPED If you hear someone saying you are going to get boxed in repeat the message down the line to other protesters. Listen to where the observation/basement teams tell you to go and go to exactly where they tell you to go. And when they tell you to get out of there, leave the area immediately. Their job is to prevent you from entering situa- tions/areas that could get you trapped and subse- quently in jail or worse!
Be Smart: Be Careful There is safety in numbers. Try your best to stay around friends and watch one another’s backs at all times.
Avoid getting separated. Use caution when deal- ing with and speaking to people whom you do not know. In the event that you are separated, stay where you are if it is safe. Once again, ensure that you and your friends have agreed to a meeting- place if seperated, and a contact person if you are caught or otherwise unable to leave an area.
People claiming to support your cause, but whom you do not know personally could be infiltrator spies. Avoid revealing your identity to them. Make sure no one other than the communications operator of the team is communicating through the radio channel you are utilizing. Be cautious about using public phones; mobile networks may not always be available so ensure you have a backup method if you are relying on phone networks. It could cause a breach of security if undesirables (police or other authorities) are spying on your conversation.
Have a designated meet up place or two, and a designated time if anyone get’s separated from the main group. Use sun up or sundown for an easy meeting time. Do not place your meeting site near well-known landmarks; it’s very probable that this is where security forces will look first. This place should also have a message drop that is concealed (such as a letterbox, hole in a wall, hol-
