I think, best approach would be to make make this ‘police’ feel unwelcome everywhere. I do not mean violence. I mean building public opinion. Word of mouth is stronger than any MSM, which is probably inaccessible anyway. It will eventually make those ‘policemen’ feel being lowest of the low. Result may be they will begin neglecting their duty. Alternatively, they may become more brutal. It’s a risk. I do not know whether it is worth taking or not. Not my decision to make.
Part of me is hopeful that scuffles such as this will force the government to reform, but the other part of me fears they’ll tighten their fists and turn up the heat on dissidents.
