Some good points have been made in this thread. Separate from your rights is your presentation. Judgment is made upon first sight by cops (and all the rest of us to some degree).

I read in a magazine somewhere of a very good tactic to peacefully prevent someone from being arrested at a rally.
Ive searched high and low and cant seem to find the article anywhere. Anyway, the article said to HUG the person that is being arrested. A group of people will gather around the person that the cops are trying to arrest and they grab and hug him/her very tightly. This tactic will only work if a) there are many people involved, and b) if your event is being recorded on video.
Basically, when all the people are hugging the person the cops want to arrest, and the police cannot GET to him, and they cannot use violence against peaceful citizens.
Hope this helps anyone, Ive never had to use the tactic and Ive never seen it used, but there you have it.

I unfortunately can believe a cop would say that the group was assisting the perpetrator by obstructing the police's ability to detain them, thus, obstructing justice charges are easily threatened with and the easily frightened will scamper off.
