    One time, I was smoking a cigarette in my car, outside of my house. A cop pulled up behind me and blasted their lights. They asked me a ton of questions, most of which I refused to answer. I gave them ID which had my FUCKING address, and they still said, “You ain’t from around here are you?”. Mother fucker, you don’t even live in this zipcode. You are at MY address. It was a Pacific beach surfing sticker and a Bernie sticker. They also told me to take them off. They went off in a pout, and the deputy told me they were just training the newbie. To what, profile people?

    Use old flags of European countries and say you are a history buff.

    Use flags of fictional countries and say that you are a fantasy buff.

    So many opportunities.

      Or exert your 1st amendment rights and put whatever sticker you want on your car without providing any justification whatsoever.

        In a Rambo movie, its cool as hell.

        IRL, I’ve got a few WW2-era relatives who will tell you how fucking hard it is to take a life for the first time. Even setting aside the consequences of doing what is going to be immediately flagged as first degree murder, it cannot be properly expressed how horrible the act of killing another person is for the human soul.

          Even hunting takes something out of you. It’s a feeling not like another to take a life, and not a good feeling at all.

            Well… the first 3/4ths of the first Rambo movie.

            The back end is just “What do we do with the rest of our demolitions budget?”

          There’s a reason why John fucking Brown is the real Jesus Christ. He’d fucking blow up the damn white house at this point.

            If John Brown were Jesus Christ, then presumably his body wouldn’t lie mouldering in the grave.

            But either way, we can assume that his soul goes marching on.

          This is the difference between someone who wants to use their gun defensively and someone who just wants an excuse to murder people.

          You don’t unholster your gun unless you’re prepared to take a life. You pray you never have to.

          But there are just too many people who are thirsty to take a life and that should worry all of us.

            I mean, “paranoid geriatric fascist serial killer performs home invasion in an attempt to murder a baby” describes a JK Rowling character and your choice of IDF or ICE officer equally well.

          Option 1: Tell them you did it to waste their time. Outcome: You’ve wasted their time, and you caught a charge for wasting police time, obstruction, or whatever it is they call it there for your trouble.

          Option 2: Plead ignorance. Outcome: You’ve wasted exactly the same amount of their time, plus you lied to the police, and you’ve faced no consequences for it.

          Picking option 1 isn’t brave, it’s just stupid.

          Yeah, let’s see how brave you are when you’ve got facists in your face.

    With all of those masks out there I thought there was a covid variant that only infected right-wing muscle bound goons. We can demand of cops “Give me your name and badge number”. We can demand of Trumps cops “BOOM! (blackness for a while) What country is this?”.

    Actually such a good idea. I might not do it because I currently dont have any form of I.D. (Lost my birth cert, dont have a passport and just lost my DL) and I have gotten mistaken for Mexican a few too many times.

        Eh its fine they run the plates im there and I have my old expired dmv id card but due to a dmv mistake its not a “real id”…so not worried about getting traffic stopped…ICE though…they pick up legals with all thier documents around here often enough (Literally a dude around here just had the same name as someone that evaded ICE at the border so he got arrested, had all his papers but yeah)

      Hit up your local Department of Social Services (or similar), and try to get an ID voucher from them. They might also have resources (type varies just ask) to help you get your Birth certificate, too. And once acquired, get that passport ASAP. Never know if you’ll need to leave forever.

        Thank you. I know how to get a copy of my birth cert (did it last year, promptly used it once and immediately lost it been on my list to do but ive been busy and its annoying because its a very manual process). Good point on the passport, dont have one because I never travel but as it is now I shouod keep one on hand, just in case.

      I tell people all the time that if they ever see a “thin blue line” sticker on my car, it’s because I have started dealing drugs, or begun some other life of crime.

    Well in the unlikely event they provided any name or identifying info, this is a 1984 lawsuit. Illegal detention. Depravation of rights under color of law. I’m sure they didn’t give any of that up given the trend we’ve seen.
