The States 2: States Rights for Me But Not for Thee

I assume it was a competitor to Boston Chicken/Market?

White Hen Pantry was more like a 7/11.

The original Boston Chicken was GREAT. A classic example where in expanding a good thing you make it rotten.

Your typical MAGA likes to believe America's left mirrors Hitler's regime because of the word "socialist" in NSDAP, ignoring they're the ones cheering on America's own version of the gestapo.

They're the same idiots that don't understand the Republicans of 1865 have nothing in common with the GQP in 2025.

Or that the racist Dixiecrats from the 1950s and the same assholes they vote for as Republicans now.

Things getting bad in St. Paul...

Every news show should play nothing but these stories every night. The TLAs could end ICE if they gave a shit. Something like 50% of Americans still watch those nightly news shows, amazingly.

The “Magic Words” ​

Memorize and Use These Phrases

When interacting with law enforcement, these specific phrases help you assert your rights clearly:

1. “Am I being detained, or am I free to go?”
2. “I do not consent to this search.”
3. “I want to remain silent.”
4. “I want to speak with a lawyer.”

Practice! Say these words OUT LOUD and CLEARLY. If you don’t vocally assert your rights, your silence may be interpreted as legal consent. Even if law enforcement proceeds anyway, stating your objection creates an important legal record.

Anything you say — even something that seems innocent — can be used against you or others in court. That’s why asserting your right to remain silent is so powerful.

Remember: You have rights. Know them. Use them. Teach them to others.
