Be a librarian. I always felt like being a custodian to knowledge was a noble pursuit, and I respect librarians alot for it. I never went into the field myself because I couldn't afford the schooling just to get a job that in my area, doesn’t pay very well. If pay wasn't a problem? Hoo boy!

Protesting is not treason. Treason is the reason for the protests.

The way I see it, if ICE is trying to come into my home without a warrant, then they already intend for me to die. I'm a white natural born US citizen, but I've made my stance on kings in this country pretty clear, so a visit from the SS is a factor I have to be ready for. I'd rather die at home, taking a many of them with me as I can, then quietly allowing them to send me to a death camp, if I had to choose.

We don't want to live here right now, but we don't have the finances to leave. So instead, we're going to protect our home, and continue to support and participate in the actions against tyranny that we can. Protests, pressure on other elected officials to resist as well, etc.

Edit: Besides, if evil comes to your country and knocks at your door, shouldn't you fight it?

Enter my home without a warrant or identifying yourself, and your gonna leave in a casket.

I've also explained to my family that we do not open the door to anyone, especially people who claim to be cops. Way too easy to claim it, then force their way in while your waiting for them to prove who they are.

I love it! Predict that a large empire of equals will fall after 250 years.

What was she arrested for?

Market myself as a powerful man of religion and/or magician, depending on the local vibe. Then use knowledge of science and tech to build myself a reclusive retreat where I can have regular baths and write books with predictions to mess with the world 650 years after I would die.

There shouldn't need to be evidence of his innocence, there should need to be an overwhelming amount of evidence proving he's guilty. That's part of the foundation for justice that courts are meant to uphold.

According to the articles I read about it, the gauges are a digital screen which changes to the backup camara when in reverse.

Wholesome, and I love it

Wow, eldritch horrors beyond my imagination. Today has just been a wild ride for me.

That's actually a pretty wholesome workout though

That paint job looks like some crap 'limited edition' skin in a chance-box mil-sim shooter. Bad enough to fall for that crap in a game, but in real life? Lame.

Oh no, that depends on the bus. Long trips, the guards want comfort. Those buses usually have AC, maybe not pointed at the prisoners but at least the bus is cool in general. Short trips though, where the guards are up front and prisoners in the back and separate? Total crap shoot. I know this from some personal experience in the NYS system.

Having been in chains on a couple of these buses during my life, I can say this much from personal experience.

In NY, you get food when your prison bus ride is more then a few hours long. We would get a paper bag with two 'sandwiches', a couple greasy cookies/biscuts ( I couldn't tell for sure), and two little cups of juice. The 'sandwiches' where two slices of bread, some mystery deli meat, and some cheese. I do not recommend trying the recipe with the ingredients they use.

Didn't matter how far you where going, that was one bag per trip per person. The trips going long distance where on converted or custom built tour buses. The seats are like what you'll find in any city bus, hard with a layer of fabric over it for the barest bit of cusion. These prison buses usually had a bathroom, but you where told it was for peeing only.

There is anouther factor as well. For the vast majority of non-guard riders, you are chained to another person not of your choosing, for the duration of the ride. Even if one of you needs to use the small single occupant bathroom. I was, in a sense, lucky. I am a large person, and the handcuff-style leg chains would not fit on me, no matter how they tried my legs where just too large and thick and only bone or muscle, so not squishy like I saw some guys who had mostly thick fat on their legs. So instead, I got what the guards jokingly called the "elephant chains", just a single chain passed around my ankles and padlocked shut so I couldn't get out. But, it meant I didn't have a 'partner'. I could have used the bathroom by myself (although I didn't, since in handcuffs I didn't think anyone would aim very well) and I had a seat all to myself, since everyone else was already forced to buddy up.

There was no entertainment, but while the windows are very heavily tinted, you can see out of them from the inside, so at least it's possible to watch what's going by. That is either a blessing or a curse, depending on the person.

And yes, we where told no talking.

Sounds like someone thinks there is only one choice, buy or don't.

Might need to make the location change to Pennsylvania Ave for a greater effect.
