    Kinda like how the Boston tea party did by dressing up as natives except without the racism.

    It’s not a bad tactic.

      Since you brought up racism: The point is to keep the cops from identifying you with facial rec, so doesn’t it make sense for a white person to wear a mask of a black person, and vice versa? Or is it bad to fool the cops into blaming a black person for a white person’s crimes? What if the mask is of a black celebrity? Nobody would believe that it was really that celebrity anyway.

      Or maybe a white person should just wear a white person mask.

        Since black people are targeted in our country, not unlike the natives, maybe best to refrain from encouraging racial profiling and Black crime stereotypes.

        Idk. Ask a black person what their opinion is. Im white so I can’t say for sure.

        I think it’s fair to say that the original Boston tea party wasn’t just worried about being identified. They could have just wore a mask or something.

        They specifically intended to put the heat on natives to protect their own ass. Which is pretty fucked up.

        Innocent Natives possibly died over their little stunt.

        We should make sure that if there is a connection to any group, it’s the group that deserves it.

        Gop criminals, Nazis, and the like are good candidates.

          I doubt the Colonists really thought it was Indians doing the Tea Party. I’ve never heard of the authorities seriously considering the possibility that the incident was caused by Indians, who would have had a difficult time making their way as an armed group, all the way through Boston into the harbor, and back out again.

          It would have been pretty clear by their clothing that they were Colonists, I doubt their disguises went much beyond some face paint and some Indian-style whooping. It was probably just more a matter of disguising themselves, than really putting the blame on the Indians.

          Besides, what would be the Indians’ motivation to come in to Boston harbor and destroy the tea? It was the Colonists that had the problem with the Tea tax, the Indians didn’t give a fuck.
