Yup... the proper response to this situation as a bystander is to film and expose the situation. Even in a "stand your ground" state, it's not justified to start shooting. (Not legal advice - ALWAYS know the local laws)
No the response is to fucking rise the fuck up. Because we're next. They starting with foreigners but they come for us too. When they do Yes shoot fucking Ice agents. Especially masked men and women. Because thats fascism.
I really, really don't want this to pop off. I want there to be some other means.
I'm just having a real hard time seeing what other choice people with their backs against the wall will have.
Ok... LEGAL response.
You had better be sure I would be up in those idiots' faces with my camera causing a huge scene
My response legally Redacted.
First they came for those with student visas
And I filmed from the sidelines.
And lived to tell the tale far and wide.
And there was no one left to tell.
The people doing this don't care who you tell if nobody is going to do anything other than film from the sidelines and complain.
It's easy to SAY that. You would also be in deep shit.
I'd die for it. And I would still do it.
Hopefully they won't come for you just because you made that post online. You and I are on the same side, friend.
Honestly, if they are coming for people about their posts, I'll be targeted. For sure. Good luck, friend.
Be honest with us, you don’t own a firearm.
