GET TO KNOW YOUR MISDEMEANORS

You feel it in your gut.

The president of the United States just proposed giving farmers and hoteliers the power to “vouch” for undocumented workers — not to protect them, but to own responsibility for them. No pathway to citizenship. No rights. Just a handshake and a new collar.

This isn’t policy. It’s feudalism.

Wrapped in a flag.

Delivered with applause.

We don’t fight this by asking nicely.

We don’t wait for a hashtag to trend.

We disrupt. Strategically. Repeatedly. Accountably.

That means civil disobedience — the real kind.

It means misdemeanors and courtrooms.

Not violence. Not vandalism for vanity.

But deliberate, moral trespass in full view of history.

20 LEGAL LINES WORTH CROSSING

1. Trespassing

When injustice hides behind private property, step over the line.

2. Disorderly Conduct

They want a quiet collapse. Give them noise.

3. Obstruction of a Public Passage

Slow it down. Make the machine stutter.

4. Failure to Disperse

They don’t get to tell you when your body stops mattering.

5. Unlawful Assembly

If you’re waiting for permission, you’re not assembling — you’re attending.

6. Loitering

Exist where they don’t want you to. It’s a revolutionary act.

7. Vandalism (Under $500)

Truth in spray paint is still truth.

8. Criminal Mischief

The system calls it mischief when it doesn’t have the guts to call it protest.

9. Public Nuisance

If you’re not a nuisance to power, you’re probably not a threat to it.

10. Interfering with Government Operations

Interrupt the lie. Don’t apologize.

11. Resisting Arrest (Without Violence)

Dead weight is still defiance.

12. Failure to Identify

You owe them nothing but your refusal.

13. Noise Violation

Let your voice shake windows.

14. Open Container

Toast to disobedience. Sip slowly. Spill loudly.

15. Littering

Thousands of flyers scattered like leaves — that’s not litter, that’s literature.

16. Tampering with a Public Sign

A well-placed sticker is a sermon.

17. Posting Without a Permit

Post it anyway. They can’t stop what multiplies in daylight.

18. Improper Use of the American Flag

If they’re burning rights, burn the symbol too.

19. [REDACTED]

(This one crosses more than a line. It rewrites the map.)

20. Disturbing the Peace

Peace without justice is just anesthesia.


THIS ISN’T A SCAVENGER HUNT.

But if it were?

You’d already be leveling up.

Choose your charge.

Make it count.

Show up in court with a speech, not an excuse.

Let them say you broke the law.

Let history say you broke the silence.
