one thing I was not prepared to find as annoying as I find it is liberals still refusing to believe that masked thugs in their communities are real feds and not impostors

But there have been imposters. Several.
And kidnappings, sexual assault and rape
Didn't Noem actually say she hadn't heard of this? Pretty sure she did.
I actually don’t know too many of those. At least not actual liberals. In CA we recognize them for exactly who they are.
And you came to that conclusion how?
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
ICE is just a place for all the losers who couldn’t actually make it in any type of real law enforcement. Just like the rest of tRUMPs regime. They are all losers that got voted out, never got voted in and/or was a talking head at faux entertainment.
If they think they’re imposters then why not arrest them?
I hear windmills are super scary.
Science, you forgot science! They hate science because it admits when it’s wrong and they consider that kind of behavior woke! 🙄
👌🥰
And pronouns and a good, solid education
this is a poorly written sentence.
Wild to think how many people have just forgotten this ever happened. Do they look like imposters?
To be fair that was an out of state agitator from Florida, he just happened to also be a cop
So Anti Fascist Action are all Feds ? Good to know Thanks
I think everyone in the US should start dressing as an ICE agent. Enjoy the resulting chaos!
Halloween is going to be special this year. I predict a string of armed robberies in ICE uniforms that night.
That's dumb.
And that's exactly why it shouldn't be legal for an officer of the law to cover their faces and refuse to identify themselves with official ID, warrant and badge number. They won't because what they're doing isn't technically legal but they dont want to be held accountable and imprisoned.
Some aren’t.
I'm just touched that they brought my neighbors and I free gear
Really? www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpCK...
Perhaps cuz masked thugs in our communities refused to identify themselves, show any evidence of authorization to arrest, observe legal and constitutional norms, & refuse due process, and the fact phonies have been found impersonating real ICE thugs. Sorry if that annoys you. What if that was YOU?
that said, the bar for “real fed” is notably lower than it was a few months ago, even for historically dipshit-laden agencies like ICE
Real infestation.
Hey! All other law enforcement officers have an ID badge, have months of training, have probable cause and a judge's warrant, and do not target workers and take parents away from children for a mere civil infraction. This is fascism.
Uhh. So, about the way the police have behaved for their entire existence...
It's an American, not a 'liberals' reaction to un-American government-approved thuggery. This is wrong.
Because they are thugs! And they violate our rights with impunity. "How can they be feds?" implies that they believe in the longstanding goodness of the feds.
amogus sorry force of habit
It's both. Real feds and impostors
ICE hit my town yesterday and I've been accused by at least half a dozen people of either Doing A Misinformation or failing to identify obvious impostors
Also uhhh if a bunch of guys who were feds showed up pretending to be feds and grabbed a bunch of people they profiled as possibly immigrants and took them to ??????? and no one was going after them that would be far far worse than the really bad reality
like no, guys, the meathead in a gaiter and a gold chain is still a real fed, where do you think the crowd of backup with out-of-state plates and hip holsters came from.
I think questioning whether they’re real feds is a good argument (in a sterile setting) for why their conduct is bad, but yeah, nobody should doubt that they will act with the authority and lack of restraint typical for law enforcement.
Um, because there are tons of cases of ICE imposters (dressed just like them and driving vehicles w/fake lights) who’ve SA women, tried to break into homes, held people they assume are undocumented at gunpoint, etc.
by this logic, you are a disinformation bot
Dumbass 🙄
Ok, Karen.
“A ton” or 5?
6 cases in one fucking area is a lot. Are you not understanding? But hey! Since you are not the one being persecuted who cares, right? Enjoy that privilege. ✌️
oh this *clarified* things for me. people want them to be impostors so that it's someone else's job (the cops, maybe?) to deal with it, rather than the real thing, because the real thing calls for a messy political solution which will require decades of pitched confrontation starting this instant.
How would you possibly know who they are without them showing ID or a warrant? You wouldn't.
Yeah, I really don't want them to be imposters. I want a way for us all to tell who's kidnapping us and whether we need to fight for our lives.
i know most of them are legit but i plan to use the "how do i know if you're a real fed and not a kidnapper?" if i ever see ice trying to arrest someone irl
Because all of them that have been put down, have been disavowed as thugs. So, watchagondo? Believe your eyes, or your ears?
It doesn’t even matter if they don’t have masks on - they’re too fat or they’re posture is wrong or something else that means they don’t have to change how they feel about the nature of and the trust they have in legitimate armed authority.
I'll guarantee you, they're not all. There's plenty, and if they won't show face nor ID, they don't need to be treated as such, but there are plenty of "bounty hunters" with no legal employment by the fed, too.
They're likely "Feds", but they are untrained and unprepared for the job. Not much to differentiate between them and imposters, though. I'm guessing there are a lot of right-wing militias present in those ranks.
Now do MAGA
I think they don't want to believe that fascism has arrived in such a cowardly form. It has, though, and we need to fight it.
because they think feds are our favorite cute nerdy characters on Criminal Minds. surely Paget Brewster couldn't try to electrocute a random Venezuelan guy with a taser in public, it must be one of those J6 rioters. and surely none of those rioters were ever cops or feds. right
Ummmm, is this satire?
I’m confused too. I mean, a lot of them are obviously not legit. Hence the facemasks, no ID, no warrants, etc.. Plus, there’s no shortage of videos of ICE “officers” not conducting themselves remotely like trained officers, even a few being run off by protesters.
Who said this? I haven't seen it
??
Won't identify? Won't produce a warrant? Assume imposter and fight like your life depends on it because it probably does.
not liberals - we get it. It is the "dem leadership and the viper consultant class" who are complicit in the destruction of our Democracy
Welcome to Vichey America, where submission is the new patriotism.
Oh, since the big beautiful bill, they are definitely real feds, but they are also definitely still absolutely untrained, absolutely unqualified federal agents
You can tell the J6ers and the proud boys by their beer bellies.
