have some demonstrators, carry a shower brush- bathing suit---soap- and rubber ducky- for when the cops use water cannons against the demonstrators.
have all the demonstrators retreat- you can't fight a water cannon.
have those trained - move to the water cannon and use for bathing-
brush under your arm and all over your back-
world news will love it and get your demonstration a lot of coverage.
people need to suggest ideas- to just how we should proceed- with this demonstration---
actually, water cannon is easy. you just lean into the force in measured proportion to the force, once you get the hang of it its like surfing or something.
I think it's hilarious! If anyone does want to try showering in the water cannons then best be at a slight distance and make sure you're not in the main jet of water. Don't want to end up getting knocked over by it. ;)
And as for defending yourself against the water cannons could always get several protesters to push against it from behind a make-shift shield but would have to make sure it's made from a strong material.
You defend against water cannons with shields. You don't dance around in the water like an idiot. It's not designed for that purpose and you're liable to get hurt (high PSI). How are you going to bathe when you fall on your ass because of the water pressure?
I've got a suggestion. "Singin' in the Rain"
How dumb is this. Very!
So you think the NYPD will force the hippies to shower by using water cannons.
