  • No SSN on that card and it’s not signed.
  • “United States Birth Certificate” is neither a Certificate of Live Birth Abroad nor marked for the particular domestic county of your birth.
  • That Driver’s License ain’t from my state
  • Incorrect number of stars on your flag
  • Hat is unworn
  • Francis Scott Key didn’t produce a modern recording of the anthem

Well, it looks like you might be trying to pull a fast one with all those fake documents and faux patriotism. Step out of the vehicle–you’re off to El Salvador.

Yeah, but think of how iconic the "post-incident" pics will be with this in the immediate background.

(Iconic for some future historians I mean.)

Driving a vehicle is grounds to be shot.

Those documents don't help when the guy with a gun can't read.

I’ve seen your car, I still think you’re getting pulled over

Only if you're not white, or seem to be leftwing

As if they haven't been killing US citizens

That's why they're doubling up.

[–] Deadeyegai@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah... Good luck thinking that

Better off carrying a hand grenade and pulling the pin as soon as you're pulled over.

In a lot of places in South Asia, it's common to place small religious shrines on the dash of a car to ward off bad luck. Just thought I'd mention for no reason.

Maybe OOP should also try wearing whiteface?

But do you have the latest ranged defence system with active threat detection, automatic manoeuvre solution generation and trajectory determined smart countermeasure deployment, which provides protection from APCBC, SAPHECBC, APFSDS, HEATFS ATGM-OTA and ATGM-VT*?

NO!
There's not even a wide spectrum RADAR over there.
