What i really hate is that the thugs with badges will continue to escalate even if you and they know they are wrong.
You have rights... only if the thugs with badges agree with them that day.
(no knock raids at the wrong address?)
And what really scares me is that these thug's typical MO
is to torture people like me to death.
How do you tell one of these thugs that you would rather be shot through the heart then to go with them? Most would take this as a challenge.
If you're going to die anyway, why not attempt to take out as many of them as possible before you do? If the penalty is the same either way, Heemeyer the thugs as hard as possible. Make it cost them.
The problem is, you don't know if you are going to die anyway.
And you are hoping that you won't.
There is never a clear line between what is a fishing expedition and when they have decided that you need to die.
And your old peaceful life is gone.
You cannot reason with them.
You cannot call a truce
And any negotiation will be used to find you, to track you down.
