We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

I'm assuming this post was made by an American, and laws might vary where you are, but the point remains the same in every country: the cops are there to serve the state, not you, and they will not hesitate for a second to lie to you and pretend to be on your side to get what they need.

Don't trust them, don't believe them, don't confide in them, don't make their job of oppressing the working class easier.

Police can lie and say you had a weapon.

Quick story: many years ago, my roommate and I were both selling LSD. A "friend" who was not a friend set us up to be robbed at gunpoint for the product and money. When a fight broke out and cops got involved (I am not ashamed of bolting out the door and running for help), we were taken to the hospital to be treated (we'd been pistol-whipped) but also interrogated. Standard good-cop / bad-cop tactics where they said they knew we were selling weed because my roommate had already confessed.

Well, the cops weren't terribly bright and accidentally allowed us to be seated next to each other at the hospital check-in area. We whispered back and forth that cops told both of us that the other ratted for weed. We concluded they had no knowledge of the LSD and agreed to both keep our mouths shut. The dope cops tossing our apartment overlooked a sheet of acid when it fell on the floor and we got away without charges.

Any day where the cops want to talk to you is a good day to shut the fuck up.
