Let's talk about the Baofeng UV-5R which is a popular and cheap two way radio.
If the city/town/county you live in uses conventional (ie non digital) radios (UHF or VHF) then it can also be used as a scanner.
So you can be mobile and know what's going on. Say, at a protest.

Before I get into how to use it a couple of caveats.
1) Unless you are on the FRS band (ie commercial walkie talkies) never hit the PTT/transmit button. It is illegal to transmit on any frequency other than the FRS frequencies

2) The frequencies you are monitoring need to be analog non trunked ones in the VHF or UHF bands. For public safety VHF that's 150-174 MHz and 450-512 MHz for UHF.
If you see NAC on the Radio Reference page then it's a P25 digital system and you can't monitor it.

I was at the #BostonProtest from 7 until roughly 9:30.
Don't believe the narrative being pushed by the @bostonpolice, @marty_walsh, the media.
The protests were peaceful. The police were not.

First, I want to give a shout-out to the organizers of the event. They put together a march in a short amount of time. I saw plenty of march wardens keeping things tidy, legal observers keeping a careful eye, people passing out masks and water every block or so. Amazing work.
The route passed underneath @TuftsMedical. Medical staff lined the windows and cheered the crowd on, and the crowd responded in kind.
We had each other's back. Solidarity.

The #BlackLivesMatter #GeorgeFloydProtests #nycprotests #LAProtests #ChicagoProtests #AtlantaRiots #Minneapolisprotests #DCProtests #bostonprotest #DallasProtests need to learn from #HongKongProtests and others that have had to deal with rampant police brutality for years.
For example, in Chile they have used handheld lasers to disorient and neutralize riot police.
In #HongKong they have a bunch of people ready to put out tear gas systematically, and constantly innovate on how to fight back
