If masked men are chasing your 23 year old daughter, you are showing extreme restraint not to shoot them [View all]

If you’ve never been a young woman, you might not understand.
You live in constant fear of being targeted for sexual assault. And yes, it happens. I won’t recount details of what happened to a friend of mine, but it is not always a lone assailant.

Young women are well aware that they can be overpowered by strange men, and that in that moment are nothing but prey.

And i remember when the phrase “papers, please” was a political joke among teenagers, when we thought that police were becoming too much like ‘Soviet Russia’. ‘It’s a free country’, we’d say, when speaking about the US.

And among the privileges of being a US citizen was that everyone understood if you fell in love with someone from another country, you could marry them and follow you’re ’happily ever after’ dream, because they ‘automatically became US citizen’ when you married them.

So dear MAGA, when your 23 year old US-born daughter is chased by masked men, you don't have the right to ‘stand your ground’ or ‘act in self-defense’.

And when daughter falls in love and gets married to a man brought to the US as a 15-year old boy, and consequently 2 of your 3 (US-born) grandchildren and your (US citizen) daughter end up watching ‘Dad’ be mauled by a dog and hauled away by similar masked men, leaving your daughter heartbroken and broke, realize this ain’t America no more.
