ensuring that

citizens inhabiting
the area of filming.
Avoid all
confrontational
remarks or

Make sure no
reaction is

the possibility of
provoking a
further response.
The public would
be the ones
responsible for
this, and the crew
would need to be
prepared in case
of any kind of
conflict.
The best response
to this, in regards
to the nature of
the verbal
harassment, would
be to either
contact the hate

report it to the
authorities.
