The banner may target a corporation, a law, a political campaign, or any activism. The banner may itself be dropped on an activists' target, or in conjunction with the beginning of a campaign. </p><p>Performing a banner drop may constitute criminal <a href="/wiki/Vandalism" title="Vandalism">vandalism</a> and criminal <a href="/wiki/Trespassing" class="mw-redirect" title="Trespassing">trespassing</a> depending on where the banner is placed and on the legal jurisdiction in which the activity occurred. </p><p>There are several ways in which banners are constructed and placed. Most often, a banner is decorated with an activist slogan or picture using paint, dye or, in some cases, screen printing. The banner is then often either tied to the target or secured to it using ropes and weights. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Global_banner_drop">Global banner drop</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Banner_drop&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Global banner drop"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c5/Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg/220px-Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c5/Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg/330px-Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c5/Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg/440px-Trump_Protest_Edinburgh_11.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5000" data-file-height="3327" /></a><figcaption>Banners hung on <a href="/wiki/North_Bridge,_Edinburgh" title="North Bridge, Edinburgh">North Bridge, Edinburgh</a>, 2017 #BridgesNotWalls</figcaption></figure> <p>#BridgesNotWalls was a global banner drop campaign to protest against <a href="/wiki/Donald_Trump" title="Donald Trump">Donald Trump</a>'s stance on immigration.
