I live in a fairly red area, I'm used to having a target on my back for being me. In fact the first week I had the flags on my cars I had multiple people tailgating me while I was on the freeway (so close that it looked like they were in my backseat), laying on their horns at stoplights, screaming out of their windows, brake checking me, etc.
Do it afraid, be brave. Have the hope that your actions will help others and work for that better tomorrow where nobody has to be afraid.
My city is rolling out flock cameras in my area to a massive amount of push back already, and I guess you could say that the more us average folk get wrongfully caught in their nets the more public push back they get.
