I swear I read this exact comment about the UK after brexit...
Good call.

You can’t go out shooting while you’re drinking. You should be able to smoke whenever you want as long as you’re not inebriated when you’re shooting.
Fully agree, and have alienated myself from former friends over this.
You can drink all day and night. but don't you dare touch a firearm while drinking. I don't care if you're just a little buzzed, man
As far as I'm concerned, smoke weed every day. But don't you dare touch a firearm while high. I don't care if you're just a little toasty, man
Drugs and guns don't mix. Alcohol is a drug. Don't drink and shoot.
I have a few LGBT friends who come over for range time, away from the type of people who normally frequent the public ranges around here. We have a loose plan of action if they need somewhere to hide, and low profile tents and 3-day packs are on standby for a couple close friends. Funds are tight, otherwise I'd be making sure there's a tent, sleeping bag, and 3 day survival pack for all of them, their partners, and their friends.
I have been told my entire life that I am "overreacting" because "that will never happen/you'll never need that", and in nearly every instance, it's been simply a matter of time.
I can very easily present myself as someone very far down the "first they came for" list, but I'll be cold and buried before I disguise myself and let the people further up fend for themselves.
While I'm not expecting death squads to be roaming the street this year, I'm also not going to wait for it to happen before I begin preparing.
If I can't directly shelter people in need, I'm damn sure going to get them heading in the right direction, with the knowledge they need, and with more than just the clothes on their back.
Make friends with your neighbors and watch each others backs.
My neighbors fully support government sponsored death squads that get to go around indescriminate lynchings of LGBT and POC.
Lucky for me, the closest one is about 1/4mile away.
Ah, so I guess the people they've been murdering every day don't count?
Well, normally I would agree with you but I don't have neighbors close enough to see me with any sort of camera, and with biking in, flock cameras aren't going to help anyone with anything.
Unless someone is hiding cameras on hiking and biking trails right around where I live, cameras aren't going to help identify a generic black blob riding a generic black bicycle as anyone specific.
It's funny you mention flock cameras though because I was talking to some friends yesterday and none of them had ever heard of flock, and when I pointed out the cameras, they seemed to finally realize they're under constant surveillance, since over the last year they've been popping up all over the city.
I may or may not have "jokingly" suggested we start cutting them down and go full Office Space on them.
It's crazy just how many cameras aren't even actively hidden, they're just in places you don't normally look. Honestly shows like Person of Interest and movies like Enemy of the State back in the day made me realize just how much surveillance there is on the average citizen, and how little privacy we really have. And that's fiction. I'm sure the reality is far worse.
Cell phones get left at home, masks and hats help protect identities, and we have radios strapped to our backpacks that have first aid supplies (as well as a few things for if things got spicy) in them.
If you're going up against technologically up to date nazis, you don't go using easily traceable things.
Hell, I even used a walking stick so the way I walk is different.
Biked to the meeting spot and locked everything up out of sight.
If anyone we didn't tell knew we were there, I'd be slightly surprised.
Everything you said after "pretend they're Spartans" would be lost on them, because they only know what the movie 300 has taught them.
"what's a Thermo-pile? What's the navy gotta do with Spartans? Stop trying to bring slavery into everything, Spartans wasn't woke"
Two small towns in Ohio also had a surprising turnout considering they're both pretty damn red.
Break the cycle of abuse.
Be better than XT-22.
Leave a better ship for XT-24.
Also, 30 years and he didn't bother with a cover up?
They aren't around anymore as of this morning, but they liked the hoodie and hat and I thought someone might like to see two doggos.
They were both good girls and I miss them.

Hardly the point. Even if you blanketed the white house grounds with panels, it's not putting a dent in overall power usage for the area.
It is, however, a very visible signal, "we value renewables, science, and intelligence" that shows progress away from the old world, and that scares a lot of old white people.
