I’ve been to two protest BLM protest and no kings day celebration protest. BLM protest was intimidating at first because I Parked close to the event and police had us surrounded and were gasing us, but that ended with them putting their shield and bats down as symbolic way of ending hostilities. No Kings day was way more chill and no confrontation with authorities that I witnessed but some happened before I got there, other than that it was mostly talking to people and expressing yourself in public.

There’s fun stories

    I have sensory issues and don’t handle crowds or noise well, I have fun for a little bit if it’s not all too crowded, but then I crash hard while still there. After 1st of May I slept 19:00-11:00. And that’s in a country where the very worst I’ve personally witnessed police do was surround and unjustly arrest people. But if I can spare the resources, it’s totally worth it.
