In the US, the boarder is considered anywhere within 100 miles of an international boarder. I.E. Oceans, Lakes that are adjacent to another country and the actual boarder with another country.

Ice agents can setup checkpoints anywhere within this area and search your phone. Since most Americans live near the coasts this “boarder area” covers an 90% of the population.

Does enshittified US drone tech even work though? Are America’s drooling cops smart enough to even use them? I’m very sceptical because the US and similarly armed middle east allies seems to be helpless against guys with trucks and jetskis and Ukraine seems to be doing better since they’ve started sourcing drones from elsewhere.

I dunno, they talk a big game but I don’t don’t think they would be any more effective at home than they are abroad. Only problem is the Americans population in general is just as flacid and unmotivated as the dictatorship.

My guy, I agree with you in spirit, but the law has been barely hanging on for a while now. The law won’t protect you from a bunch of SS neonazis with more funding than the fucking Marines when you shoot one. If you haven’t noticed, they’re a bunch of cowards who roll in packs and shoot people for just being too close to them.

You’ll bring one, maybe two with you if you’re quick or they’re lined up all nice, but that’s about it

Of course you live in Florida. Your other comments are all explained. How sad, to treat others the way you do when you get even the barest hint of push back. Does it make you feel less impotent, to call people “asshole” and “cunt” when they weren’t even being rude to you? (The mods have, sensibly, removed those comments, and they may feel free to do so to this one, should they feel that this violates community rules). To paraphrase what you said in a different comment I saw a minute ago: if you can’t take the heat, step away from the fire.

Quit treating other people like the sack of dirt you perceive yourself to be. Do better.
