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."

"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.

    You may choose to say, “I would really love to help you in your investigation, but I would like to speak to my lawyer first.” I would choose to say, “Fuck off fucking fascist.” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      And you would be sitting in a cell awaiting arraignment, the exact place the police want people who do not cooperate with authority.

      I never said to actually provide the police with any information. The whole point of having a lawyer is that they get to handle the heat.

      With an attorney present saying that you won’t cooperate isn’t a crime. All you’ll have to say is, sorry I would like to help but I’ve been advised by my legal representation to not speak to you.
