From Sally:
Even if you are just attending a rally to take notes and see what the fuss is about, people will think you’re a supporter of the cause unless you make a conscious effort to identify yourself, and the “wrong” people will congratulate you for coming. Wear a button, a shirt, bring a sign, etc. to clarify which side you’re really on.
Jane's Lessons Learned 
Oh Sally, I totally agree! Wear a button, bring a friend, and always have an exit strategy in place. Don’t get stuck in the center of the rally surrounded by crazed zealots who want to harass you!
