Butt scooting at the protest, trying to avoid rubber bullets long enough to catch a riot cop with a triangle choke.
Kiran sadly got roasted on twitter initially for making this point, being accused of ableism. I don't think it's necessarily ableist to say for those able to do so getting fit in order to defend against fascists is objectively a good idea.
Probably should do some research on how to get out of handcuffs and zip ties too.
Small pen knife kept in a rear pocket. have a friend zip tie your hands behind your back and practice getting to your knife and cutting your way out.
Both systems work by ratcheting right? Just get something in between the two sets of "teeth" that interlock and you should be able to work them free. So like a paperclip or bobby pin might be helpful... and looks less like a weapon.
Zip ties don't typically have any metal to reinforce them, and the weakest point is where the tail goes through. So there's a pretty good chance you can break zip tie cuffs if you can pull the tail really tight while pulling against the cuffs.
