They already know about the use of provocateurs and other techniques to trip people up.
And they know about the braitbart efforts to smear them and are trained to deal with that too.
Much like MLKs non-violent protest training,the OWSers are coached on how to deal with violence against them and with trouble makers who are up to no good.
I remember seeing a training session from MLKs movement in a documentry.
The trainer told the marchers and protestors that if they couldn`t take a blow or a beating without striking back,to stay home.King didn`t want people who were going to make violence(even in selfdefence),marching with him.King knew they would be baited with violence, to be violent.
If a man or woman couldn`t take an insult,a rotten piece of fo thrown,a punch or a beating.....they didn`t want you in the march.You could be in the movement,just not part of the civil disobedience.
It was the only way for the civil movement not to devolve into a violent movement.A very brave man,Martin Luther King.And his people too.
MLK had whole staffs and whole budgets and hundreds of professional/government agents working against him and his movement.
The OWSers have had only amature efforts at smearing/hurting them so far, but they are still told about them and how to avoid them.They`re told that if someone suggested violence or something illegal,that it`s probably a cop or a con like bratfart, setting a trap.
