  1. I thought masks were too hot and they were suffocating.

  2. I don’t think any government official operating in the US should be wearing a mask. They should he easily identifiable since they are servants of the public

  4. Who doesn’t want this? And how is it legal in the first place? 

  5. Actually, everyone except fascists want to ban masked secret police.

  6. I mean many states have laws now where you cant wear a mask when protesting, so it should only be fair that ice agents shouldnt wear a mask.
    No visible ID / Badge, no enforcement of uniforms and masks, sure isnt a great combo

  8. I am completely ok with dismantling ICE completely they seem to have no respect for checks and balances and the rule of law.

  9. The headline should be “Republicans refuse to ban masked ICE agents”

  10. All of America should be concerned about masked terror squads that go around kidnapping people off the streets. But red states think those are Trump’s special guys and they are only abducting brown foreign people, so they have nothing to worry about. Lots of people just don’t care until it affects them personally.

  11. Everyone should want this. EVERYONE.

    Enforcement that refuses to be identified is such a disgusting concept. Republicans better wake the hell up. One day they’re going to be coming for you too.

  12. Everyone should want to ban masked agents that act like they have the authority to approach anyone and make them disappear.

  13. ~~Democrats~~ *Decent people* Want to Ban Masked ICE Agents

    **FIFY**

  16. Pretty unnerving that a fascist secret police was allowed and needed to be banned.

  17. EVERYONE should want to ban masked ICE agents. Otherwise anyone with enough confidence could just kidnap you by pretending to be ICE and no one would know who to look for.

  18. Everybody should want to. Especially people that value the 4th amendment.

  19. They absolutely need to be unmasked and have actual warrants. It’s scary thinking any Joe shmoo can gear themselves up and claim to be ICE/Police/Fed and just take people. Added to that on my local FB page there is an old police enforcer car for sale still geared out with the crash bar in the front, the sirens and lights and the jail back seat. The doors don’t unlock from inside, the seats and plastic, and it still has the bars dividing the front and back seats. Anyone who wants to steal people off the street could buy that car, dress like these wanna be’s and kidnap people. And if they target migrants there is little to no recourse for the families trying to find their loved one.

  20. Just abolish ICE when they get the congress back. Remove all the funding. This is one organization that is completely off its tracks. For now removing masks, and hopefully adding required credential and badges, is a start and is likely all they can get while the Trump ass kissers have Congress.

  21. There is no reason to be masked. What are you afraid of?

    It is within your rights to ask for name and badge number.

  22. Rational people want to ban masked ICE agents. These people are the enemies of freedom.

  23. It’s pretty fuicking wild that these fucks don’t have to identify themselves. This is 100% fascist brown shirt, gestapo shit. It’s already started and it’s just going to continue escalating from here. History repeats itself. I thought we could learn from it and not make the same mistakes, but, here we are.

  24. Now psychos operating alone or in groups can wear masks, grab random people off the street without any formalities just by shouting “ICE!” throw people into vans and speed off to points unknown.

  26. if you can’t show your face, you are not law enforcement. ice operates via loopholes and legal grey areas.

    one day, they will be punished for their current criminal behavior, when that eventually happens they don’t want a bunch of videos out there clearly showing their faces making it easier to convict them.

  27. I no longer want badge numbers to be small text on their shields (or wherever they have it, if they have it). I want that shit as big as the Sheriff, or SWAT logo on their body armor and shirts. Make it Velcro so when one gets fired they can replace it with another and if they don’t wear it they’ll be fined $500 for the first offense, and doubled for each offense. Two offenses? $1000. Five? $8000. Keep fuckin around and you’ll be sitting along the homeless they harass.

  28. I mean Republicans did tell us that only criminals wear masks so…

  29. “If passed, the legislation would forbid law enforcement officers and agents for the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement from hiding their faces or concealing their identity when making arrests.”

  30. That I agree with. Anonymity brings out the worst in people.

  31. It seems like if they did nothing wrong then they have nothing to hide

  32. Yes. Obviously. No one in any form of law enforcement should wear masks.

    This being a politicized issue is proof that half our government is completely compromised against America values.

    Fuck those people. Fuck anyone who supports this. The Republican party is ensuring that I never respect or support them again.

  33. Or everyone can start wearing masks so they can’t see our faces either.

  34. Stupid headline. Any thinking person would want to ban masked ICE agents.

  36. Why do you need masks if what you are doing is “good” ?

  38. Like many things Dems want, they will not fight for it, stand for it, nor make it happen.

    Just another grandstanding that will never get past the geriatrics who cant stand all the angry people

  39. I think it would be quickly learned that a vast majority are not trained law enforcement, but rather part of Roger Stones proud bois terrorist militia network.

  41. Wouldn’t wear a mask when it was for everyone’s safety. But have no problems wearing one now because they are chicken shit pussies who don’t want their identity exposed.

  43. If they’re so proud and happy to do the work, it’s amazing they don’t want any of the public credit for doing so.

  45. Law enforcement should not be concealing their identities. Im not saying they need to broadcast their personal identities, but if you roll up in haphazard uniforms concealing your face wearing temu camo, how the fuck is anyone supposed to know they are “law enforcement”.

    They know this. It’s part of the plan. Sooner or later, one of these fucks will get shot and then they can declare martial law.

    Fuck ICE. Fuck this bullshit timeline. Resist and fight.
