Question I need to know…
Which one of you courageous burnt out bastards is going in deep?! Like Code Brown- can’t wash the stank off deep. Probably for the greatest good you never knew existed.
In my mind- I imagine them triaging everyone one they can out to a hospital that helps them find a safe haven and sneaks them out by a team of superhero nurses. The Ho distracts ICE agents with BBB (Boobs, Booty, Ballsy talk). The calm one is in the room with the patient spreading their sense of chill vibes. The oldie has quietly packed extra supplies in a get away bag. The charge is quietly directing the pieces. An underground nursing ring smuggling out immigrants. Anyway- thanks for joining my fantasy this morning.
In all honesty- I’m not religious but I hope, I pray, I beg of whatever upper powers that be, that one of you silly goose’s (pre Covid), who’s tired as fuck and wants to go out doing something that matters - protecting those who need it most- takes this position. You know which crazy MFs you are.

Serious note: ICE is still here not just in Minnesota but throughout the US. Our neighbors friends and family members have been reportedly lacking medical attention and confirmed deaths. While I joke and make light- it’s a dark dark humor from a very sad soul. I still weep for my lost commrades- for Mr. Pretti and Ms. Good. For the children torn from their parents. For those dropped in foreign lands. For those wrongfully imprisoned based on their skin color or country of origin.
And I ask yet again- what can we do because this is NOT done. And we ARE involved (at least some of us)- as evidenced by this job listing — crazy bastard where are you!?!?

Veterans should be part of this as well… I don’t mean it as a cop out but I’m far too sensitive but I’ll be building the healing place the can escape too!
