    Willing to bet just about anything that the second you try, they’ll find probable cause to detain you

        Might end up on a no fly list and with federal charges, but you’ve surely showed them.

        They have the upper hand, and no amount of imagined badassery will fix this systemic problem.

          You do you and I do me. Let’s not judge each other and instead remember we’re on the same side fighting for the same thing just in different ways.

          After all, I’m not asking you to do as I do. That should mean something right?

        You’re welcome to try, but your whole attitude seems rooted in the idea that at the end of the day, the justice system is on your side and that you can beat them at your own game.

        More likely you’ll get arrested, probably have some BS charges thrown at you that the judge will happilly pass through, you’ll never fly again, and maybe even see some jail time.

        There are many valid and important ways to fight back against police injustice. Yelling “get fucked pig” - while satisfying, and even justified - is definitely not one of them, even if talking about doing it does make you feel like a badass lol

          You’re making an assumption that I believe in the justice system.

          You’re very likely (95%) correct that I’ll get fucked over by the entire system, and I’m willing to accept that. I don’t care if I lose. I care that I tried.

            Seems like a waste to me, if you’re literally willing to give up your freedom to fight the system, it’d make a lot more sense to do it in a way that might actually lead to change

            But hey, it’s your life to throw away 🤷🏼‍♂️
