i have deep empathy for people with substance abuse issues. also, that guy. (plus, 3? what employer gives 3?)

😂

this was one where i think few could have predicted a campsite on a summer weekend. like come on. you know kids are there.

this is probably an article or something, but i've think local networks that formed years earlier to respond to ICE have really done a great job pivoting. NC has long been a hub for ICE (during Obama), so organizers have honed their skills fighting many different battles.

well. believe it or not, i've met the ones no law enforcement agency will hire lol

I think strategies have to change per location. Charlotte, same thing, it's not Chicago. But I also see a lot of local organizations pulling together -- Siembra's network is great.

chuckle. i never remember our wedding anniversary and it's a running joke with my spouse.

"are you a summer or a winter?"

when i talked to my doctor (who is great about this) i called it "bitchy lady syndrome" because...

it was actually this random guy who lived around there who initially posted on FB to alert people -- granted the comments were ick

Just posting bc ... you know. (iykyk)

i didn't even know if there were empirics!

yeah they are the ones helping to coordinate aid and a rally. they are the best! (sorry i was testy; i'm a bit tired)

Nvm most dudes not in a city have a kit just like this in their closet.

Organizers tried to limit no-knock warrants and guess what happened… bupkis. Even though most people supported it. There’s no going back to Officer Friendly

Nvm dressing like Andy Griffith has its own baggage.

More important than the kit are all the post-9-11 tactics — surveillance, using “secret” info to arrest or indict, etc. The police will shift to unmanned drones. Military and police are intertwined in this country. It’s not so simple as, dress like Andy Griffith.

Sigh

It’s not like a city where you can go inside. They are in a forest at a creek in the mountains. Nevertheless neighbors cared a lot.

I mean it’s western nc in a forest. But folks were very quick to alert others when they saw a roadblock.
