    There are a few apps that will upload your video directly to the cloud so that if they take and destroy your device, or the original files, they can’t destroy the evidence. There are also ACLU apps to upload the video to their servers so they can have the original video, even if the Criminals On Patrol destroy your device, or coerce you into allowing them to delete the files.

    That’s your first line of defence. Make certain that your devices are pattern or password locked. Do not use biometrics. The Criminals On Patrol don’t need a warrant to force you to open your phone, in the US, if you can unlock your phone with biometrics, I.E. your fingerprint, face, or any other lock that only requires you to be there to open. Patterns and passwords have to have a warrant, and you can still refuse even with a warrant under certain circumstances.

    Second line of defence: always wear some sort of protective gear. This can range from multiple layers of silk or leather clothing, all the way to anti-stab or bulletproof vests. Remember the Criminals On Patrol have no vested interest in ensuring that law abiding civilians, (what they refer to as “potentially armed enemies”) can maintain any semblance of safety. Their only objective is to protect the property of the rich.

    Third line of defence: COPs are not your friends, as you have already seen. They are nothing more than state backed armed thugs that will murder you as quickly as they will look at you. Shut the fuck up, and record. Don’t say anything to these thugs as it will only make it worse for you. If they attempt to arrest you, don’t resist, allow them to illegally detain, and rob you. This isn’t always enough to keep your life, so be careful and vigilant.

    Edit: If you have the ability, carry a burner phone that has all these apps, exclusively when you can. Having only an unattached burner phone, and no ID really confuses these Thugs with badges.
