I saw a clip on reddit about such karen and now that scenario is stuck in my head, new fear unlocked.

What’s the best response for each scenario:

You are:

  1. Undocumented
  2. Legal - Visa
  3. Legal - Permanent Resident
  4. Naturalized Citizen
  5. Citizen at Birth

    As #5 white looking man: I’d tell her go ahead I’ll wait. Then once they are here, tell ICE she runs an illegal daycare out of here home for illegal aliens’ kids and that she is upset because I called her at the church potluck. Proceed to give them a local megachurch or if not available a white baptist church.

    Act like you can’t hear and get away. If she grabs or tries to block moving away then escalate to what is required to get away.

    Give her the talk about how nobody except for roughly 0.04% of people are actually native.

    If there still a shit stain, use there own logic.

    Just say what if i called ice on you?

    They will most likely be white, and or something racist with it.

    Use there racist remarks to publicly shame them, and tell them you can be white and an illegal alien.

    Show them there logic is flawed, poke holes in there ideologys

      If there they’re

      use there their

      Show them there their

      in there their

      I’m actually a little sad that you didn’t go for the trifecta and incorrectly use “their” in place of “there” at least once.

    I’ve been in a few confrontations in my life.

    First rule in any confrontation is to maintain your cool. If you aren’t going to throw the first punch, you want to look like the reasonable one. They are like dogs and can smell fear.

    The figure out how to deescalate the situation. Ask her what she wants? Free delivery? A written apology? Yes her to death and walk away.

    With the blatant disregard for the rule of law this administration has already shown, it may not matter what number you fall under. A lot of it, very sadly, seems to be dependent on what you look like.

    If you’re 1 through 3, why are you picking a fight with a Karen? Get out before it escalates. And if it does, keep your head down and hope for the best. Or move cities, especially if you’re #1. 4’s and 5’s may want to have proof of citizenship accessible. Keep a picture of your birth/naturalization certificate and/or passport on your phone, preferably behind a password like in a password vault app - don’t just keep it in your camera roll, it needs encrypting.

    It’s also worthwhile keeping in mind that some Karens’ bark is worse than their bite. They may have gotten off on the threat enough to not go thru with it.

    I don’t condone violence normally for any reason, but anyone who does this to anyone clearly deserves a wooden board to the face.

      The prisons are full of people who thought their violence was justified.

      Use some logic. Cops aren’t going to search that hard for someone who might be an illegal. They are going to look long and hard for someone who assaulted an old woman.

        I mean, you are kinda right here, and I admit that my answer was mostly emotional.

        I’m not saying I would do that, nor am I suggesting others should. Just that for the sake of cosmic balance, it is deserved.

          It’s like you didn’t bother to read the article you posted.

          The police attacked the woman. They don’t like it when you usurp their privilege.

            They are going to look long and hard for someone who assaulted an old woman.

            That is laughable, and the article i linked provides context to my position. Now, if you had clarified by saying the cops would look long and hard for someone that assaulted a “well known” or “wealthy” old woman, I’d have no notes. I believe you understand the difference.

          & get raped & assaulted in prison for their efforts ?? You seem to forget to add that part. Oh wait; you don’t care about anyone but yourself.

              What an amazing projection & nobody deserves to go jail by pandering to a deranged low-life like you.

              I’ll add that too. Go be the violent vigilante all by yourself.
