Geez, guy, being white is no guarantee. There’ve been white folks from Canada and the UK who ran into trouble with Border Patrol and wound up incarcerated. See, for example, this article about Jasmine Mooney:

They’ll surely find some reason to hate you, because hate and fear are all they have.
As Master Yoda presciently said:
Shouldn’t be a problem, provided @scudsucker is South African. Then he can claim asylum and actually get it.
Yeah, I forgot about that part.
(I just won’t mention my UK citizenship)
Yeehaa, Texas, here I come!
What can possibly go wrong? 
Given the way a certain segment of the British population, especially in England, are going, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if you could wrangle (hehehe) asylum too!
It’s so obvious they are trying to provoke a reaction from somebody, ANYbody. They are desperate to invoke martial law and start the shooting.
It’s absolutely disgusting.
Not only that, they’re doing their utmost to create a situation where they can convince congress to cancel the 2025 and future elections. Why 2025? Becaue of the redistricting referendums to counter the gerrymandering.

“simply unreliable" Being Judge-speak for “complete and utter bullshit”
I totally misread that as “sending the National Guard into Poland.”
Ha! Back atcha.
Note that “it was not immediately clear…what would happen with the troops already mobilized and deployed in Illinois.” I will now drift off to sleep smiling to the fantasy of National Guard troops being arrested and thrown in jail. (Maybe send some of them to Guantanamo, and others to Ghana.)
(No offense to Ghana, a wonderful country – for real).
ETA: Sorry, that was rude. The Guardsmen themselves are just young folks following orders. Better to go the route as depicted in this famous photograph: Flower Power (photograph) - Wikipedia
This excuse hasn’t flown since Nuremberg.
True. Okay, back to my first fantasy, then.
I’m unwilling to actually watch Fox to find out … have any of the media actually put a reporter on the ground in Portland? or Chicago? All the videos I’ve seen have been amateur cell phone videos.
Nahhhh. Why bother when you can just recycle old footage from Florida and pretend it’s from one of those war-torn liberal states?
Trump and White House Busted Using Florida Palm Tree Footage to Show ‘Chaos’ in Chicago
ARE YOU KIDDING!?!?! Its a war zone there, worse than Khartoum. You can’t expect Fox to needlessly risk their reporters lives like that.
I found evidence of Portland being a war zone.
