cool pictures, but isn't it an idea to maybe hide the faces? As some people, including me, rather don't want to be on the picture.. luckily i'm almost invisible on these pictures, but still...
keep up the good work :)

I thought demonstrations were ment too draw attention..? Hiding faces without reason for this sort of public actions is ridiculous.

you are right for sure that it is ment to draw attention, but i think our right-wing ''friends'', and the cops as well, will love these kind of pictures. We, as activists, should trust each other with cameras, but also with the pictures afterwards that every one is carefull where they put them.
Pictures made from fellow activists are mostly clearer (or better; when the pictures are taken at the time that a window is smashed or graffiti is being put somewhere for example) then those from nazis or police, because, of course, we keep them away from the demonstration as much as possible.

| | Masking up and photos | nn - 20.07.2010 13:53
The main point here is I suppose, don't do the work of the police for them, so blur faces in photos. Apart from that, if you're in anyway active or have been to more than a couple of demos it's 95% sure the police/secret service know who you are. And even then, it's not like they're trying to take you down personally, a bit of a paranoid fantasy/ego trip.
Mask up for rioting, know beforehand whether you plan to engage in rioting on the demo. Don't do this half-assed british/american thing of trying your luck on every demo but never really going for it. All you end up with is maybe one smashed window and a bit of graffiti, which honestly doesn't need the entire demo to be masked up in order to do this.
I'm still skeptical of the idea you have to be permanently dressed in anticipation for it "kicking off", especially when most of the time it's just a peaceful demonstration and that's all it will be.
Not masking up if something is going to happen is obviously pretty stupid, but at the same time masking up when nothing is going to happen is just counterproductive as it intimidates and alienates people that we should be trying to convince of our point of view.
Also, all black and masked up in the middle of July?! Poseurs! :p
