STOP. BRAGGING.

Stop trying to give credit to people on the front lines of these protests.

I need to stress this, you are doing the cops job for them.

Those masks you’re wearing at these protests? They’re not just to keep you from catching the rona. Its to conceal your identity.

And that entire purpose is destroyed the second you try to take or give credit for being on the front lines.

STOP. BRAGGING.

Cops are monitoring social media. The second you name someone on the ground, that person is now a target.

Now is NOT the time to be taking credit for your actions.

Keeping each other safe means keeping your mouth shut.

Do not name ANYONE on the front lines. Do not name ANYONE at the protests.

The ONLY exception to this rule is when you are outing a white supremacist or undercover cop trying to instigate more violence.

Do not name your fellow protestors. Don’t even discuss who may have done what. Stop doing the cops job for them.

Filling their snitch lines and apps with junk is great, but if you’re simultaneously going around and naming protestors, you’re not helping at all.

Stop. Bragging.

Do you remember this man? Edward Crawford? He’s dead. They ruled it a suicide. Except he had four children, a new apartment, and a new job. His own father believes it wasn’t suicide. NBC quotes “It’s not the first time a notable Ferguson protester has died from gunfire.”. Darren Seals, a Ferguson protest leader, was found shot to death inside a burning car. 

Guys PLEASE. This isn’t the time. Anonymity is CRUCIAL. There is military personnel in the streets right now, you NEED to keep your mouths SHUT.

Stop naming protestors. Stop filming/photographing protestors faces. Learn to block out your photos and videos to conceal obvious characteristics like tattoos or unusual/noticeable hair styles/colours.

YOU NEED TO BE ANONYMOUS.
