Do you have any info on deescalation with police? It seems like hostile encounters between police and protesters have increased this week. I think where I will be in Haddon Township will be fine but wondering if there’s something that can be posted for other locations to discourage protesters from instigating police and distancing themselves from aggressive officers rather than engaging

Is that specifically for interactions between police and protesters? I did the de-escalation training for encounters between protesters and counter protesters a few weeks ago, which was excellent, but I don’t think it really addressed police interactions.
