Combating the FIT team.
One of the techniques used by the London police to discourage radical politics is to photograph and video people on the street while they are attending legitimate meetings. This has the effect of discouraging the more timid from attending.
While watching an amusing and inspiring well acted Danish film on TV called ‘The Idiots’, in which a bunch of radicals revealed their ‘inner idiots’ in public to combat complacence about the subject of mental disability, I had a rush of inspiration. What if we turned up to meetings in wheelchairs or on foot pretending to be mentally disabled? As far as the general public are concerned it would look as if the police were targeting ‘spastics’. A definite no, no.
This would obviously involve a number of training sessions in which we could learn how to act out the challenging part of the mentally disabled, which would be much easier for some than others. Any thoughts?
