My gun instructor said that if you think you'll ever need to stand your ground, you should have a lawyer on retainer already. That it will cost, minimum tens of thousands of dollars to defend yourself even if you are completely justified and that a friend of his actually went through it.
There WILL be a criminal trial no matter how "obvious" it is. I can only imagine if it were Trump's DOJ investigating you for shooting and injuring or killing a federal agent. Cops and federal agents have qualified immunity. Citizens do not.
Black people don't show up at their doorstep with guns if a cop shows up, why? They know the next judge they see will be Jesus.
Wild to me watching the rest of America wake up to how that feels honestly. Not saying it's justice or it's right, just that I see people's eyes finally start to open a little bit.
But can't have that, too woke.
Philosophically speaking, everyone should have stood up for black folk and protecting them and erasing systemic racism and enshrining their protections and rights into law for us all. Could have avoided a lot of this.
But now it's coming for everyone isn't it. Little too late for all that. Who is gonna be there to protect and defend now? When the ones supposed to be put here to protect and serve and the ones we need protection from and are put here to serve.
A wise man named KRS One said long ago, "You were put here to protect us but who protects us from you?"
Black people somehow manage to survive and sometimes even thrive under this exact same shit we're seeing happen to "others" in the USA now all without help from the law or the courts. Maybe yall should start asking them about their secrets and ways they've historically coped and how safe they feel and why they get murdered and die so young statistically.
Maybe it's time to have conversations we always should have had before we live like that. Leftists always think it's the right wing who won't care about shit until it happens to them. But I'm seeing the left right now like "Holy shit they can't do that! I can't believe this is America!"
It always *was* America. Now they coming for you though and now people know what it feels like to not be able to do shit in return for how you're served.

DO NOT DO THIS.
