Sounds like OC'ers should never OC alone

From what I have heard it sounds like lone OC'ers are targets for lone PD's. If OC's always worked in two or more the illegal detainments would not be as much of an issue. All organized OC meetups never went to arrest or overreaching e checks IMHO. Thoughts?

This is mostly true. Solo performances of OC make it much more likely that the detention will be longer, more restrictive (ie; handcuffing) and the searches more extensive. This is why I keep pounding the Noobie thread-over and over again.

If you insist on uoc during the requested stand down- at least try to follow some established operational standards while doing so.
