Comment on YSK that no form of United States ID, no matter how valid, guarantees protection when ICE decides you look like an immigrant.

  I’m not really sure what this comment was trying to do. I’m scared like anyone else. My fight or flight response is gear heavily toward stand-still-and-hope-their-vision-is-based-on-movement, so unless I’m fighting a t-rex I’m hosed.

  I’m not pretending I’m all powerful. I’m stating compliance is nonsensical.

    Oh for fucks sake there Internet Bravado, you might not have understood what my point was damn you sure as hell proved it.

    Don’t go around telling others to fight and die when you aren’t willing to do so yourself.

      I’m not Jason Bourne. I’m some dude on the internet. And you don’t fight hoping solely for your benefit. You fight so those who follow have better odds.

      If it makes you feel any better, I already know what’s coming for me here. I’m part of a population that will absolutely end up in a mass grave before this ends.
