Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Whose says they're moving the Guard into cities? I know Trump is angling to give them more power.

They just did this in Albuquerque. 71 Guard soldiers are there to "assist" police - ostensibly, they're simply there to "free up" police from the mundanity of things like traffic accidents, wellness checks, etc, so they can "focus on crime".

Overtly, this is slow-rolling the idea of using armed forces to occupy cities on home soil.
