absolutes aka simple facts

lol, like I said

Right, so names can be made up. That is the point.

this actually works the exact opposite of the way that you think it does

 

[Habsy]

Going on a limb here but I assume illegals are on the whole unlikely to do things that would put them in contact with authorities.

Disagree. There are many gatherings and protests over the treatment of illegal immigrants hosted by and attended by illegal immigrants.

While it's not viewed upon as an issue now, they won't be doing it as much should trump win. The risk will be far greater for them.

You can do anything with drop box ballots

uh, no, you cannot. your lack of understanding of basic electoral procedures is a serious issue that is going to colour your subsequent opinions about elections in your country.

Do some research into the Fulton county findings.

Fulton had the notorious “pipe break” at State Farm arena, was told they’d not count any votes until the next day, yet resumed at 3 or 4am.

For those of you that want to know more about this and aren’t in fantasy land, here’s the link: https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-trump-indictment-fulton-suitcases-pipe-654281257169

You’re not following it closely, then.

I do think they are particularly emboldened right now

Ya I mean that’s not even close to an analogous situation.

It does put them in risks way though should the wrong police show up.

 

[Preston]

Stop it, preston

Go fuck yourself

They should be. They're treated like utter shit by most

 

[mbow30]

Go fuck yourself

The optics of saying this to myself are a bit of a mindfuck.

 

[Habsy]

Go fuck yourself

Stop it Preston

Aren’t they doing it in sanctuary cities, where authorities are more scared of them than they are of authorities?

Mostly but they've spread out. Nothing violent or anything of course. There was a small gathering at a park I was at a few weeks ago and maybe about 20-25 were there and they were simply asking to stop being looked at as invisible.

I didn't read the whole convo here tbh because "been there done that" but I do worry for these people if the wrong regime gets in again.

Make murder illegal!

Make murder illegaler. After all that will stop people from doing it

I'll shoot them for free

Kind of ironic, tbh
