I wasn't suggesting you capitulate.
You think you have rights until there's a gun in your face, that's the whole point, you get it worse if you don't capitulate because standing up to them is the biggest most unforgivable crime there is.
Eh, I’ve had guns in my face before.
I’d rather do what’s right than lick boots because of some twerps with guns.
I legitimately don’t know the legal status of many of my friends. I know some of them are going through the immigration process, but have no idea of their current status.
At the end of the day, I’m not lying to an officer when I say I don’t know. I’m not an immigration official. I don’t ask to see my friends’ green cards when we hang out.
I would rather live with being in jail on bullshit charges than thinking I might have helped ruin the lives of people I care about. But I also recognize that I’m in a privileged position to do that. I already own my house, I have skills and knowledge in a trade, and can easily start a small business to support myself and my family if no one will hire me.
Do what you think is right for you. But if you rat out people you care about just because some dipshit waved a gun in your face, you’re a coward.
