    At this point, if you’re brown and living in the US, you need to buy a gun yesterday, open carry even in places that you are embarrassed to do so in order to normalize it, and outright distrust every level of law enforcement.

    It’s either you get questioned by cops to get locked away in a foreign prison forever with no hope of ever returning, or die free while shooting an ICE agent Christian fascist bigoted MAGA gestapo cop, taking them with you to the Big Sleep.

      I know it’s a harder pill to swallow for younger folks, but my old ass has put serious thought into dying with my boots on. Trump will be going after legal immigrants next, like my wife. FFS, they’re taking white people already.

      They have trained me to shoot first, ask questions later. And I mean that most literally. FFS, they come in unidentified, and even with ID, with no warrants.
