This isn’t the old news story. This is a report from today. November 16, 2016.
I thought I’d cry the day it’d begin. You know, just break down and weep. But I feel this endless numbing in the depths of my heart. And I don’t ever want to see any white person tell me about their safety pin this and safety pin that. I don’t want to hear about any solidarity from anyone unless it means you’ll register in the database, too. Which you won’t. Why would anyone. It’s being marked for life. This is one of the first steps implemented in erasing a people. Historical precedents have shown this over and over and over again.
Okay I was about to ask, instead of non Muslims registering in solidarity, why not just not register as a Muslim? But then I clicked the link and skimmed it. And it turns out the policy would be to force anyone from a Muslim country to register in order to get into America.
So there can’t be any solidarity registering and there can’t be any nonregistering. But also nobody who’s already in America will register yet.
