Jesus christ. Unidentifiable people just kidnap you for expressing an opinion. This was a legal resident, so we're watching the rule of law disappear.
I hoped I was being dramatic when I made a comment a few months ago how Hitler took full control in only three months after being appointed. I thought we'd have a few years at least.
But here we are, two months in, and right on track.
Read Takeover: Hitler's Final Rise to Power for some scary shit about the last six months before he gained office and how he didn't have a majority when it happened. It's exactly this. We're fucked.
This is what the 2A folks are preparing for and now that it's happening, we can probably expect crickets from them.
Carry a firearm to make surprise arrests spicy. At this point there isn't much left for a common person to do except become dangerous.
That or do some research and start a list of names of the DHS and ICE employees. We need to fight back with the soft power of doxxing.
I low key have.

They're mostly out-of-shape larpers that just want to be able to buy their overpriced toys with no actual patriotism or balls. Very similar to the current administration and the unelected muskrat that are taking their rights and freedoms away, really.
Gestapo.
Call the police
We ARE the police!
Yup. Everyone has power fantasies about standing up to the "patriarchy" and "fascism" from the safety and comfort of their home. Until shit suddenly gets real. There is no help to call. If you're lucky you get a kangaroo-court date where they will sentence you into oblivion. If not, you just disappear. Like she has.
How many hours have you been in the gym this week? How many guns do you own? If the answer is "not too many", then you are not peaceful, you are harmless.
First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me
Start disappearing ICE.
Hey Boston, I expect better from you.
You see this shit, you give em the old Comm Ave Kisser, maybe a little Boylston Bop and a Haymarket Haymaker followed by a little Dropkick down at Fenway, know what I mean, guy? Tell em fuckin Sam Adams sent ya. And tell em to say hi to their mothers, wives, and daughters for ya.
re-reads... Yep. Clean as a whistle.
Edit: someone steal this and post it on Reddit and see if you get banned.
Oh yeah tough guy, you would have totally attacked those men and saved the damsel. Then everyone would have clapped and the mayor given you a medal.
