I get it, and you're totally right. But just know that in this context, you're essentially saying "martyr yourself"
There are different levels you can go, there are options in between holding the gun and doing nothing.
In today's America you can be deported to a terrorist prison state for being brownish, regardless of the paperwork. You can be detained for weeks for being a German, dutch, or British tourist, so tell me where that grey area is? Where is that needle thin line where you would go, from the safety of Europe? Tell me the exact guidelines I should follow here, cause they're much tighter than Baghdad circa '05.
Do you even know how big the US is? LA is a 26 hr drive from me. Where the fuck do you want to draw the line? Does that change when it's your country and your life on the line? And most of you are Canadian or European, and a lot of you came real fucking close to the same fatevto a lesser extent. So I ask again, where is your narrow margin where I should sacrifice myself, while you have nothing to lose?
And now we know how Hitler managed to rise to power.
