Visual profiling and detention the next level of ICE in he absence of any real data to indicate an individual meets their criteria for engagement… it’s how they meet their “numbers”

The sheep and the country is watching … smells of past history

It definitely rhymes with a bygone era

It’s interesting, I get shade all the time, my town, 7 churches, poputlation about 1,000, what’s worse, we have a tiny church, I am a convert to catholicism, from Book or Moron creepyness. I like the liturgy, and I appreciate the message and since we are so far from anywhere our priests come from central Africa or Mexico… I usually attend Spanish mass because their are figitting kids and louder singing, it’s always acapella because nobody can play the old Hammond. So, I get smashed in town for actually being catholic, am how I am not actually a christian, one guy called me a papist, had to look that one up. I learned a lot about fighting in Belfast because of that comment. Just sayin’ you don’t gotta like me, talk to me or anything. But, please, bear with me. I don’t and can’t hop around, the only tongues I know are english and spanish, snakes creep me out, I’m not deadset on Sunday Mass or a you-messed-up, it’s Saturday, dummy. Sometimes I go to tuesday morning mass when going down to the feed store, sometimes I invite the father up for a good homecooked meal. I am not a rabid religionist, but I kinda feel that even good atheists are going my way… do good, don’t do bad, love your neighbors, don’t beat on your partner, your kids or even that guy who still has your plumbing wrench.

But there is actually only one great commandment to rule them all. That commandment Jesus gave, the one that supercedes all others takes out huge chunks of the old testament and leaves nothing except the ‘who begat who’, and throwing folks in pits, lion’s dens, big smokey fires, and one army at another.

So, this is a learned thing, a thing to practice daily, and something, I admit, am not a role model, some kind of biblical scholar, or an authority of any kind.

Jesus said, “Love one another.” Simple as that.

And the do unto others one which is in one form or another in most religions' tenets.

Spending too much time gazing at a pea green body of water? Color of the year, Behr Green.🤢

Perhaps the sheep could ride around in golf carts to avoid the label of "loitering". Kinda look like they're busy, productive, non-threatening? Aimless. Lazy?

Oh- and don't forget about those Flock cameras in the form of the locally mounted & camera enabled drones aka Crows & Ravens. They have a memory and have been retaining retinal scans for quite some time now...

My concern is growing especially if innocent sheep in flocks doing simply sheep things that they've done for ions are being closely scrutinized as something else...

The problem is less visible now than Minneapolis but it’s getting worse, they are just being more strategic about it.

I've been reading what I can about it but damn trying to keep up with every plot twist has been giving me headaches! Thankful for the Flocks reporting it's grounding :)

Love it, hate the implications.
