White folks are used to being polite and accommodating to cops. Do not fall into your old ways. For once, your silence will not be violence. STFU if the cops come looking for your neighbours. No matter how friendly.

Fascism only works if we go along with it. Fascism only works if we surrender to it. Resist. Do not say a word about your neighbours. As far as the cops are concerned you’re a recluse who doesn’t talk to anybody where you live."

ID for all 3 images: White text on a black background:

"Fascist raids by law enforcement should be met with:

I don’t know.

I can’t help.

I do not know anybody’s legal status.

I have no idea who is an immigrant.

Middle ages white man here. My motto for cops:

I ain't seen shit.

I don't know nobody.

They'd ask, "where were you last Tuesday between 4pm-8pm?" And I'd respond, "I wasn't!"

The third part I didn't include has less to do with cops and more just anyone I see on the streets.

"Hell, I ain't even here"

I got nothing to do with their shit, I ain't a snitch.

I didn't see nothin. I don't know nothin. I didn't hear nothin. I wasn't even there. I was drunk.

And I’d respond, ~~“I wasn’t!”~~ "Ask my lawyer."
