It's easy to say from a state of calm that you'd theoretically "not comply", whether that means you would physically struggle with them or run away or retrieve a weapon from your home or whatever. It's another thing entirely to be actually confronted with this scenario and to make that dire decision with very short notice. You may only have seconds to both change mindsets to fight or flight and come up with a plan of action. Frankly, many people are not capable of this, and many more can't come up with actions that would get them far.

The other thing is that people don't know that that's the outcome. They bargain with themselves because it's an easier option than the above. "Maybe they do just want me to answer some questions?" "What's the worst these unassuming guys could do?" People tend to normalcy and civility, not fighting authority.

All that to say, if you don't want to comply you need to make tangible plans and preparations and not just self-assuring thoughts, because they will have certainly prepared for the possibility that you will struggle, or run, or retrieve a weapon.

The problem comes when they have enough power to send a couple polite enough officers who will insist you come in to clear up some confusion by answering a few questions on the record, you are forced one way or another into their vehicle, and you're just never seen again hide or hair.

In one permutation or another that's how it happens, and you'd be surprised how quickly it can happen here now that an unaccountable network of secret police and gulags has been constructed and normalized in American society.

Man Charged With 3 Felonies For Breaking 3D-Printed ‘Decoy’ Flock Camera

When asked how much he believes the camera costs to replace, he stated approximately $1,000-$5,000 proving that Meyer knew it was an expensive real piece of equipment...

The arrest report implies that because Meyer thought that Flock cameras were expensive and because he didn’t know it was a decoy that he could be charged with attempted grand theft and other charges that carry more consequences.

DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE

New car suggestions

Essentially none, they are all significantly to severely terrible on privacy.

The Slate truck looks promising due to not having a head unit from the factory but it's anyone's guess if and when that project comes to fruition and in what state.

*Permanently Deleted*

How many criminals are taking along their microchipped pets to and from their crimes?

Rhetorical question I know. They simply do not want to allow dissidents and undesirables the freedom of movement.

Also, if you contribute to a project like this, you are a traitor and should be treated as such.

Thomas urges Supreme Court to "reexamine" 169-year-old judicial doctrine

In a concurring opinion on a unanimous decision, Thomas said the court should “reexamine” the doctrine of judicial estoppel, which is a rule that bars litigants from taking contradictory positions in different court proceedings. He questioned its legitimacy and historical footing.

If the law isn't even internally consistent then it's not law at all, it's the capricious whims of the ruling class.

Get fucked, Clarence.
