Do what everyone ELSE does when traveling to a new country; respect the local culture, customs, and do what others around you do. Be observant and respectful.... chances are unless you're from the south no one will even know you're American.

Also realize most Canadians are aware that Americans who are a problem don't have a passport and have never left the country; while the Americans who travel are not the problem. We have our own rednecks too, we call that Alberta.

I have a ton of pinned map points for both my work and travel all over the world from the last decade or so... does anyone know of a way to export these from google in a format that will easily plug into openmaps or some other app? There are thousands and manually doing this is not really an option...

People are too asleep to realize what is coming; and the extremists are too empowered now to stop. Historically... We're boned. Its past time to fight and now time to flee while that's still an option.

He's just doing literally the exact same thing every dictator in history has done to seize power out of a corrupted democracy... The parallels are loud and the future now is highly predictable.

No surprise; It's seemingly all bots arguing with other bots now anyway.

First they came for the Communists, And I did not speak out, Because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the Socialists, And I did not speak out, Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, And I did not speak out, Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, And I did not speak out, Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me, And there was no one left, To speak out for me…
