Today I drove to Joshua Tree, CA to help support a TI who is trying to get a permanent restraining order against a perp. This is the longest road trip I’ve taken in the past 2 years and the “first responder” perps were in full target hardon mode. I used to feel pride and respect when I saw first responders, now I just feel ashamed for them.

The first responder harassment in my area takes over. A woman told of how others almost ran over people after a plane crashed so they could take photos. They even moved the road blocks, jumped the curb onto her place-almost killing a few bystanders-and when asked to leave they informed her she didn’t even own her own property.
