Dress conventionally. Adopt what you perceive as the broad community standard. Don’t be black or white as long as gray has so many shades.
Blend in.
Be clean and neat, never showy or gaudy.
Conformity for guys means neat beard (if any), no long hair or freaky clothes. Biker “colors” are out.
For the ladies, no sexy, convention-flaunting attire such as miniskirts and see-thru blouses without underwear. The man LOVES to drool over “liberated” lassies, and often does more…
Have conventional answers to common questions such as where you are from, where you work, where your family lives, etc. Be vague, however.
There’s less heat in telling plausible lies than in countering with self-righteous silence. The object is to avoid suspicion, so be a “reasonable” person. Lying is not illegal unless you are under oath or perpetrating a fraud.
When confronted by federal agents or other law enforcement officers, you have no obligation to talk to them. If you do, however, make sure you don’t lie. Making false statements to federal officers *is* a bust!
A good way to turn the “meeting” in your favor, is to inform the officer that he should take up the matter with your attorney, whose name and address you are willing to provide. If you don’t have an attorney at present, tell him you are in the process of obtaining one, and that you will so notify him when you do. This will tell the agent-snoop that
- you are a cool customer who knows how to take care of himself by knowing his rights, and
- that for him to deal with your attorney will be tantamount to having to take you to court–something he’s obviously not (yet) ready to do. Your talking to the officer could very likely insure you an earlier court date….if that’s what you want.
It’s perfectly moral to lie to someone who asks about things which are none of his business. HE is the one acting immorally. Don’t forget!
Don’t throw wild parties. Far too many busts come courtesy of tender- eared, blue-nosed, fink-ass neighbors.
Don’t make speed, DMT, THC, acid, or nitro in your kitchen. Window sills aren’t the safest places to cultivate, either.
Hold your stereo down to “mood level” late at night. Not everyone mellows out with Led Zepplin or the Stones.
Your neighbors are the most dangerous people you know. You can include relatives here, too. They will ALL snitch without compunction.
“Calling the cops” is fair sport in towns of all sizes, so don’t antagonize. Be friendly, stay friendly–but on your terms.
Be superficially “nice” to your neighbors, but have as little as possible to do with them. Ideally, you don’t want them to know *anything* about you.
Even if you observe all these precautions you might still be harrased by criminals, both private and public. Whatever you do, don’t blow your cover and thus lead them to suspect you. Keep your temper, be humble and polite, and refrain from shouting matches and/or slugfests.
Remember you are a minority of one. “They” still have the guns and bars.
If you’re not content, however, to let vengeance be the Lord’s, at least abide by this cardinal rule of guerrilla warfare: Don’t let the enemy determine your tactics. Retaliate at a time and place with weapons of your choosing.
Any activity which might attract unfavorable attention, such as writing, nude photography, erotic sculpture, etc., should be done under a “nom de plume”. Provide a separate address for any such names. P.O. boxes are fine.
Never express controversial opinions around home or at work. If you preach, do it in another town or state.
Avoid being fingerprinted. Don’t apply for civil service jobs.
The FBI would like to have everyone fingerprinted so they could *control* individual lives, but so far they’ve been stopped.
Stay out of the armed forces. Here again fingerprinting labels you forever with the only method of positive identification.
Don’t apply for security clearances or seek employment in firms which routinely fingerprint.
Don’t take part in mass demonstrations or dissident activities which might lead to mass arrests. Fingerprinting would surely follow.
The thumbprint required on applications for drivers licences in many states (like California) does *not* go to the FBI. It is kept with the applications “on file”, and its main purpose seems to be that of psychological deterrence. The states make no efforts to classify the thumb prints, and the FBI is not interested in helping. Applicants who wnat to make sure their thumb prints are absolutely worthless will press extra hard and make a slight twisting movement with their thumb as it is being printed. The result is a perfect smudge–worthless.
