Oh I've no doubt you're right about that! That is IF SHE/THEY LIVE THAT LONG (ie., don't die in the meantime of COVID or ivermectin)
BUT in the moment, when confronted by an anti-mask anti-vaxx WS COVID assaulter,
1/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 attempting to intentionally infect me or my daughter (as the women in the video clearly did) PEPPER SPRAY WILL STOP THOSE WP/WS COLD & I've no problem doing that b/c
Point #1) in fact that's assualt and could be attempted murder if theyre positive & know it (b/c if you've
2/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 been tested & come up positive those records go to COUNTY, State & Nat'l health depts so easy evidence via subpoena right there)
Point #2) Unlike her, me & my daughter can LIVE for a bit w/t/REST of her/WS BS they'll do to extort the system b/c its more than they do
3/
I'm certainly not suggesting PEPPER SPRAY IS THE SOLUTION to WS, it is not;
Point #3) but in the moment it sure as hell will keep random stray COVIDholes from assaulting & possibly infecting me or my daughter!
4/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 A BIG POINT 4) & FOR THE RECORD: Watch how fast all these COVIDholes stop tryna assault & COVID infect 100s of maskwearing-vaxxed or medically excused maskwearing-unvaxxed folks in stores once y'all maskwearing-vaxxed folks carry & use pepper spray when COVID assualted
5/
Point #6) If your worried COVID assualters will just randomly start popping into stores to pepper spray maskwearing-vaxxed folks first; YOU NEED TO SEE LAWS
6/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 SURROUNDING CARRY & USE OF PEPPER SPRAY b/c in NO US STATE can any unvaxxed-unmasked-WS/WM/WW COVID assualter OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER just walk up and pepper spray you.
Point #7) But WS anti-mask antu-vaxx get in my face to COVID assualt me/my daughter or to mount any
7/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 other kind of assult including barring the door or blocking me in (which BTW constitutes kidnapping) they're going down behind pepper spray and I'm walking period.
Point #8) If I'm in a State, County, township or city w/mask mandates or a store requiring masks and
8/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 I go in thinking it's a designated "safe zone" but some COVID assualter allowed to run rampant like that & isn't tossed out by store security or manger posting NO MASK NO SERVICE sign b/c lax company management/store manager who are themselves ant-mask anti-vaxx or
9/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 anti-mask, anti-vaxx sympathizers I may sue just to put a stop to all this BS (& I say that [tho there's been cause aplenty] having NEVER sued anyone in my life: I'm just not inclined. There's no sense spending time & $$ on legal system designed to benefit WM/WP, lawyers
10/
FINAL THOUGHTS: That yall WP worry about ALL THE REASONS why not to use pepper spray/DRAW STRONG CONSEQUENCES for WS b/c COVID assualters won't be arrested "pepper sprayed or not or
11/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 pepper spray will then give them reason to fake being hurt & collect workman's comp etc etc etc IS A PRIVILEGE.
A) That you even have a choice to do or not do/risk or not risk when standing up against folks under the WS umbrella IS A PRIVILEGE.
12/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 Are there consequences for doing anything ..... bound to be anywhere you are INCLUDING THE CHOICE TO KEEP DOING NOTHING BECAUSE.....that too is a PRIVILEGE.
B) WS is not some backwoods cultish political theater...its life & death for the rest of us "not-White folks."
13/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 It's still to a large degree innocuous to most WP who take note, walk on by AND PICK & CHOOSE WHICH ISSUES TO TAKE UP RE WS & I rarely hear the words WS or racism as causal more like the recognition that economic inequity is a problem and it is but just straight numbers
14/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 here, the largest economically disadvantaged group in the US ARE WP and SINGLE W MOMS with kids at that. So I'm never sure that what I'm hearing today is sticking tomorrow
C) And let me be clear WS & racism HAS NEVER BEEN OPTIONAL OR A CHOICE FOR ANY AF-AM/POC/WOC TO BEGIN
15/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 WITH: NOT WHEN WS/WP/WM/WW ARE TRYING TO INFECT/KILL YOU in person, by dearth of PPE, med supplies, racist institutional policies etc etc etc...
There's no choice about what issues you have the time money or t/heart for....THATS A PRIVILEGE
D) Small towns, rural counties
16/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 may not arrest anti-vaxx anti-mask COVID assualters BUT GUARENTEED IF YOU ARE WHITE YOULL HAVE QUITE THE WINDFALL LAWSUIT IF POLICE DO ARREST YOU for pepper spraying an anti-vaxx anti-mask COVID assualter who got in your face or for protecting someone else whose face
17/
J) WP are going to have to DO THE WORK. Yes it's hard but Im tired of hearing y'all complain and panic about what's been going on all along; especially since AF-AM/POC have long been screaming abt it
20/
@MendoKC@nancyterhune@davenewworld_2 & dying underneath it; & at this point, most of y'all WP HAVENT REALLY DONE MUCH BUT MAKE NOISE AND VOTE (which you're supposed to do anyway)
K) So dis right here..about your White small town and what's going on... is on you (WP) to fix.
@Peace4all17@tlfmgator00@ReginaMichele5 This is just t/conversation tonight.
T/fact that none of this is sane or based in lived experience should inform us just how damaged these folks are.
THEY CANT WAIT, THEY CAN'T STOP & THEY CANT INCLUDE ANY INFO THAT DISPROVES ONE BABY HAIR ON THEIR HEAD WITHOUT FALLING APART

@Peace4all17@tlfmgator00@ReginaMichele5 This is what death looks like staring you in the face b/c one way or the other these folks are determined to GET THEIRS
And to save themselves the indignity of being WHITE WRONG WRONG & SO BEYOND WRONG they're running right into the fire claiming theyre now saved just before

@Peace4all17@DKThomp@KumarAGarg This is the evidence for ongoing passive genocide and as those who follow me know I've made the case for this via more threads than I can count. While there are improvements in some areas for Af-Am death rates the impact of these POLICIES IS WELL KNOWN & INCREMENTAL
1/
@Peace4all17@DKThomp@KumarAGarg IMPROVEMENTS IS NOT AN EXCUSE OR COVER for this shameful inhumane approach b/c when those same issues hit white communities the policy response is ROBUST. To, no one ever takes into account that Af-Am have thanks to HBCs become more educated and there are more Af-Am MDs

@Peace4all17@DKThomp@KumarAGarg to help fight off those rates of illness and deaths but the passive obfuscated POLICY underbelly continues across all domains of Af-Am life starting with policing, & the lifelong truamatic STRESS (not it's not post- because it never stopped) of living in a White Society that

@mj_ruleoflaw@StatenIrished My family on both sides is LONG LIVED so yes. They were with us through 94, 91 89 & 89 immigrants all except for my mother's mother (my grandmother) who was racist as hell. How she married my brown skinned grandfather from Lebanon with all that hate spilling out of her I'll

She and my grandfather had of course divorced by the time I was born, but all he would ever say when asked was "at one point I loved your grandmother very much." And that was that.
He was always the consummate gentleman.
She'd also thrown a fit when my

@mj_ruleoflaw@StatenIrished mother married my father that WAS ONGOING ALL THROUGH OUR CHILDHOOD'S because my dad's mother (my paternal grandmother) was "mulatto."
& Although we were never allowed to be rude to her even if she did talk racist trash drivel about my dad his mom or indirectly about us,

@mj_ruleoflaw@StatenIrished My mom had at kids at 17, 19, 32, 42 (me) 43 & 45 My sister at 17, 19, 41, & 43. Me at 35. I'm terribly grateful the values I was raised with were at least 25-30 yrs behind the times (here were not taking racism sexism homophobia- that was NEVER part of my upbringing).

There are some perks w/age & wisdom you can't put a price on.

@mj_ruleoflaw@StatenIrished overseas friends who came to visit, sometimes months at a time) who broadened what we thought about and knew.
We weren't allowed to watch TV till 8 yrs old & even then only 3 hours for "special" Sunday shows (something I repeated with my daughter).
