Look up to see whether your state has a "castle doctrine" and then just shoot.

TRP isn't what you need here, you need to play the legal game.

Go ahead and give the police a call and let them know about the situation now, so that if anything does happen they have it on record and you'll be the victim no matter what.
Like others are saying you can check your gun laws.
Try and get pictures of them if you see them again, and then report them for trespassing.
In this day and age as a black person, you can swing your hammer of victimhood in the court.

Good luck man

It sounds like you handled it well.

If it does escalate further you have an issue. Get used to being called the n-word if you live in the stick, you can't change peoples minds. I'd recommend considering buying a weapon for self defense. It's one thing if someone is calling you names, laugh that off. But if someone is threatening your personal safety or your property that's a larger issue.

If I was a black guy in a rural area without many blacks, I'd always have a handgun within arm's reach. If I were married, I get one for my wife also.

Hell, I'm a white guy in a predominantly white area and I carry.

It isn't because I'm afraid. It's because anyone that fucks with my life is going to hell.

If I were you, in addition to any large to medium handguns you might have, I'd have a pocket pistol that you just forget about in your pocket. It's always there. Get a good holster that covers the trigger guard.

In the house, I'd have a 12 gauge with smaller buckshot or an AR-15 loaded with highly frangible rounds.

i hope you're a gun owner. what are the gun laws when it comes to trespassing in your state?

i don't think there's a trp way to handle it other than shielding your wife from your fear. never let her see you sweat

"this isn't over" is some corny shit to say by the way, but it's a legitimate threat. legitimate enough to keep your firearm on your nightstand when you go to sleep

It's sounds to me like you had to wrassle those boys.

You sound like a man of some means. I'd get a phone that auto uploads video to the internet and record your interactions. If it continues, see a lawyer. It's not the 1950s and you have a lot of power on your side. If it comes to it you can get state doj, fed doj, FBI involved. If you haven't done so already I'd get a pistol and learn how to use it and when it's legal to use it. Obviously that's last resort.

helmet cam, or other cam

Yeah i have a large tract of land, and some idiot neighbors that had issues with not destroying parts of it with ATVs. A well marked hip height barbed wire fence solved the problem.

Were they drunk?

The go around

Here is the deal, and you're not going to like it. You're representing your race at all times. If you run a red light in a white town everyone is going to say "look, there is another nigger running red lights."

When they approach just say "look Guys, this tough Tony shit doesn't impress anyone" and have amused mastery. Don't engage in acts of violence but make sure they know you're not afraid, angry, and not worth your time because you have more important things to do. Essentially be boring for them to pick on.

In the mean time set up outdoor cameras, alarm system, and keep your gun nearby, but if you have kids have all the necessary locks on the guns.

Post your land, Mark the boundaries. are you in purple paint state?

Nergaal · 2016-12-31T08:29:42+00:00

While I understand about being a pussy, I strongly recommend you not to involve guns. If they get racist heads get threatened, they will be more convinced in their belief of harassing you and might make them more willing to be careful at fucking you over. If you shoot them, I bet there are plenty of other racists in the area that will try to seek revenge. Don't be a pussy but don't be a moron either.

Sensei_Hensei · 2016-12-31T15:42:07+00:00

Move. You're a black man in a rural community with a white wife with a known hate group in the area. It will not end well and you will not change their views. I know saying that you don't think about race and all that good stuff is going to get you a lot up votes by TRP but race matters to those men and their organization. Lacing up your boot straps and "not playing the race card" is going to harm you and your family. Get out of there.

If you don't want to push back if it comes to that, then I would change my ways a bit - you're going to have to let them ride around on your property as they want.
