ACLU Protest Advice

Times probably call for these old rules too.

1. Don't rat on your friends/compatriots.

2. Don't rat on yourself.

3. If they're still asking, they don't know.

I'd also add good advice from one of the top public defenders in Los Angeles: Do not give any false statement to police that they could corroborate. He gave the specific example of having an immigrant in your home and ICE agents come knocking.

If you say, "I don't know them" or "haven't seen them in weeks" but your phone or other evidence could prove false, that's a misdemeanor that could be made even more serious. Just say, "I can't help you" over and over again if necessary.

"Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what. If you know could hear you, you know what you'd get. They'll take you off to you know where for you wouldn't know how long. And for you know who's sake don't let anyone hear you singing this song."

Pretty sure it was one of the ones written in H-block prison during the 80s Troubles
