    Has anyone actually confirmed that those guys are actually ICE? Because they look like I could pretend to be ICE and get away with it.

    Well. If there’s nothing identifying them as an arm of the state, it’s legal to shoot them in self defense should they try to kidnap you. You can also say that the law doesn’t matter anymore as the US government is flagrantly violating it but that also means that the law no longer has legitimacy as the government is breaking it’s end of the social contract. Therefore, normal morality in the absence of law applies which says that self defense is legitimate.

    It’s 2025. America. You see these men on the street.

    If you assume they are going to rob a bank dial 911.

    If you assume they are going to lynch someone dial 911.

    If you assume they are going to kidnap someone dial 911.

    If you assume they are law enforcement then get your eyes checked. They aren’t wearing any identifying uniform, no insignia, no badges.

    If you assume they are impersonating law enforcement then dial 911 and get your eyes checked.

      Definitely don’t call 911. That just gives them more backup. They look like terrorists in the streets. It’s actually illegal here to wear a mask over your face while demonstrating or armed so they are under stand your ground territory

    They look like random Grand Theft Auto enemies that you wipe out by the dozen.

    They know what they’re doing is wrong. And outside the law

    They know if they are identified they will be dealt with. Outside the law.

    That’s a lynching posse, and not a gathering of lawn enforcement officers.
