White folks are used to being polite and accommodating to cops. Do not fall into your old ways. For once, your silence will not be violence. STFU if the cops come looking for your neighbours. No matter how friendly.

Fascism only works if we go along with it. Fascism only works if we surrender to it. Resist. Do not say a word about your neighbours. As far as the cops are concerned you’re a recluse who doesn’t talk to anybody where you live."

"Fascist raids by law enforcement should be met with:

I don’t know.

I can’t help.

I do not know anybody’s legal status.

I have no idea who is an immigrant.

    Eh, I’ve had guns in my face before.

    I’d rather do what’s right than lick boots because of some twerps with guns.

    I legitimately don’t know the legal status of many of my friends. I know some of them are going through the immigration process, but have no idea of their current status.

    At the end of the day, I’m not lying to an officer when I say I don’t know. I’m not an immigration official. I don’t ask to see my friends’ green cards when we hang out.

    I would rather live with being in jail on bullshit charges than thinking I might have helped ruin the lives of people I care about. But I also recognize that I’m in a privileged position to do that. I already own my house, I have skills and knowledge in a trade, and can easily start a small business to support myself and my family if no one will hire me.

    Do what you think is right for you. But if you rat out people you care about just because some dipshit waved a gun in your face, you’re a coward.
