Absolutely! So tired of hearing how intimidated liberals feel, how they fear violent repercussions. We must all stand together and not let the bastards win with just intimidation!

YouтАЩre correct to remind us of that, about getting out or leaving. Cities & counties in TX are already passing ordinances to make it illegal to travel on the roads or hwys that pass through their jurisdiction, for the purpose of getting an abortion!
At least 1-2 states have passed laws making it illegal to transport, or in any way assist, a minor to leave their state to get an abortion!
We would all love to believe that these travel bans would be struck down by a federal district court, & if not there, by the scotus, as being unconstitutional; but due to many terrible rulings they have issued over the past 3 years, we just canтАЩt count on the courts anymore. They have been captured by hard right religious extremists.
So how long will it be before all citizens of any Republican ruled state are forbidden to leave the state without a state govt permission slip? How long before there are border checkpoints like exist in Russia or N Korea before youтАЩre allowed to exit the country?
Airports have been closed to fugitives for as long as there have been passports required for international flights (1978). It has always been possible to emigrate via a hike across the northern or southern border, or by pleasure boat from any coastal marina.
Now I sometimes see drones looking at me while fishing on Lake Superior. Likely there are more times they go undetected.
Fully half our population lives within 100 miles of a border or coast, within the federal "border zone".

When fascists prioritize securing the border, keeping immigrants out is only part of the goal.
No one gets out without permission.

It CAN happen here.
