An American citizen born and raised in California is unsettled after receiving an e-mail from the US Department of Homeland Security ordering him to leave the country “immediately.”
Aldo Martinez-Gomez received the DHS notice on April 11, threatening “criminal prosecution” and fines if he does not depart within seven days.

Martinez-Gomez works full-time assisting immigrants in court for a non-profit and believes his advocacy work may have placed him on the government’s radar.
Same. I was telling my wife I’m legitimately afraid to be walking around by myself now. I used to feel safe wherever I went and now I am always looking over my shoulder or scoping things out before I get out of my car…just to get groceries or something.
This is fucked.
Yup. I’ve told my wife that when they do come, I’m not one to go quietly.
Remember that 2A is for everyone, pepper spray is legal, and check your knife laws and your 1st amendment right to protest is still a thing.
I actually just got one of those relica practice pistols that uses CO2 cartridges to shoot pepper balls at up to 350fps.
It’s non-lethal, but it’ll still hurt a bit.
The point of the pepperball gun being? You know they’ll shoot you dead when they spot it, right?
Might as well be carrying the real thing instead.
Not everyone has the ability to kill someone, even in self defense. Some folks aren’t built to take lives, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Fair enough but in that case maybe don’t carry a gun at all. Like I said, it’s basically suicidal.
Regardless of the current, evolving circumstances, law enforcement officers treat any gun as a deadly weapon. So they will shoot first & ask questions later.
Maybe you should try to move to Canada.
