We are not safe in our own homes [View all]

Our local officials whom we depend on to keep our communities functional and safe apparently are unable to deter the unconstitutional detention/imprisonment of American citizens. It has been shown that Justice Kavanaugh’s assertion that detention is immediately terminated upon proof of citizenship and absence of an arrest warrant is just another deflection of our constitutional rights.

As a 74 year old white male born and raised in Florida (not that I considered that to be a privilege), I feel that I shouldn’t have to produce my ‘papers’ on demand. Apparently in today’s society, taking a walk around the block without identification is risking zip restraints followed by indeterminate detention. This state of kakistocracy has to end SOON.

Show me your papers old man. Seig Heil!

Peace ☮️
