Those are a bunch of violent far right kidnapping terrorists. Treat them as such.

They look like criminals with zero indication as to any authority. Not uniforms, no badges.
This nation needs to make it physically unsafe to be in such a state.
If those were medical masks it would be different: my buddy’s wife is immune compromised so he wears a mask when out and about as do I when we’re together. That ain’t this.
A handy guide to America:
Wearing a mask to prevent the spread of infection during a global pandemic? It's an excuse to hide your face, you literally cannot breate through it, and it's a symbol of leftist fascism.
Wearing a mask literally to hide your identity so you can physically accost and abduct anyone under the pretense of 'immigration authority' with zero need for due process so there are no repercussions when you are wrong? That's protecting your country.
What if everyone started to dress exactly like that? Try and arrest someone then motherfuckers! Real life Spiderman meme ensues.
Given what is currently happening in the US, I cannot help but ask myself: Does the police still respond when emergency calls come in reporting that several armed and masked men are dragging people into a van and kidnapping them?
That's a genuine question, and I don't know the answer. But hey, I don't know the answer to the question of how all this can be possible in a constitutional state either.
Turns out having a constitution isn't enough. You have to actually follow and enforce it to be effective.
Fucking pussies.
No reasononable person would believe these are police. Not guilty.
How have none of these guys gotten shot yet?
These pussies get violent in courthouses and kindergartens.
How can anyone look at these people and say “they’re the good guys?” MAGA is insane and dangerous.
How do these guys not get shot more often? They look like regular dudes kidnapping someone. Well, I guess that's what it is, but serious, this baffles me.
If these unidentifiable people tried to arrest you would you not be within your right to defend yourself with force?
Could you also not get a bunch of mates dress the same and disrupt all of their raids by claiming you’re the real ICE and they are just a group of random strangers
If the law actually applied equally to everyone, both citizens and government thugs? Absolutely.
But we all know that's not how it works on the street or in the courts.
The first time, yeah, I get you. If it happened a lot, though. They’d change their MO. Maybe wear some stylish Hugo Boss designed uniforms.
All I see are a couple of MS13 members about to perform a kidnapping, better alert SWAT!
Isn't there a particular Nazi paramilitary that dresses up exactly like that? Those guys that were on a U Haul?
Patriot Front or whatever. Yeah, they look just as, if not even more dorky.
And no one seems to do anything about it.
It's soooo easy to kidnap people in the US right now. Human trafficking rings never had it so easy.
I hope they keep up the masks and flannel and all that other heavy shit through the summer heatwaves we got coming up. They’ll need each other because I doubt anyone will help keep them cool
We used to have a word for people like this, what was it again, Ohh yeah, pussies.
Unmask and dox all these pathetic cowardly racist motherfuckers.
It would be interesting to follow them. Find out where they live or where they go in their off time. Then call the ICE on them.
I'm pretty sure, in some states, You can shoot people looking like that.
They wear masks for the same reason the Klansmen wore masks.
Aren't they klansmen or their sons?
I’m sure more than a few of them have that in their history, along with numerous times starting a sentence with, “I’m not racist but…”
that’s actually a mob of criminals. you see these dbags you need to call 911, especially if you are not an immigrant.
Call in a potential bank robbery
Pathetic. Take off your masks, pussies. I wanna see the faces of the people who kidnap my friends.
Anybody else dressed like that in the street would be arrested.
Any non-white person would just get shot if they dressed like that.
And.. Are these the guys kidnapping children at primary schools and playgrounds? Cuz they do wear the right clothes for such occasion.
The answer is, yes. Multiple times they’ve gone to schools and attempted to remove children.
Wait, that's how they're actually dressed? They just look like random people. The fact that they don't get shot more speaks a lot about how well behaved the people they are kidnapping are.
I think they look more like a bunch of thugs than normal people.
It’s the masks. Their body language is softer than my hangover shit.
They couldn't possibly look more "police officer in plain clothes" if they tried. Generic flannel shirt, generic blue jeans, generic black shoes, a cap, etc.
PUBG-Look
Looks like a group of shady men wearing masks intended to hide their faces around an unmarked van threatening civilians with weapons to me. Call the police, maybe hyperbolize it a bit. Make them either abandon their spot or waste their time justifying their existence to the police instead of whatever bullshit they're there to do.
Looks like a bunch of fascists committing state-sanctioned domestic terrorism.
This is the correct answer.
Flannel is the new brownshirt.
fun fact, flannel catches fire like nothing else
Really? So why do they give them to every worker?
who? ice? you think they provide their goons with the laundry day clothes they wear? i think it's much more likely they're telling them to wear what they want. but also, they're fucking stupid. so there's that
