Went to Xidan today. First police officer told me no problem as long as i wasn't reporting. The second one suggested I leave.

Plainclothes security who followed all the back to the metro station waved off a third set of officers, said we'd already been taken care of

At Xidan, rows of police and plainclothes on street, in mall, everywhere.

During past 2 days have been told by a police officer that it was OK to be somewhere, and then told by another officer/security to leave

@JoshGartner Actually, police I spoke w/ today, and the officer yesterday were all very polite/professional.

@JoshGartner Only real problem was plainclothes yesterday at the petitions office.
