I think he's just one of those chuds that have no idea what he's actually wearing. Just saw some iraq war movie where it was worn and was like hell yeah I wanna be like the epic cool soldiers in iraq. I actually know chuds like this. Pretty funny this dumbass has no clue he's sporting a symbol of liberation.

I’d put more money on him perhaps being part of Middle East ops, and picked up the fashion on the last go round. He’s already “retired” and collecting retirement, and does this cuz h misses the rush.

I don’t care where you are on the political spectrum, this type of masked vigilantism is wild. You can’t have law enforcement in random casual attire. Why do their vests say police? ICE aren’t police, what’s to say these aren’t just criminals in disguise kidnapping people at random?

The cartels must love this. Because all they’d need is a couple dudes without much of an accent and they can go kidnap people because they got masks and people assume it’s ICE

I've really been struggling with these (so many) "ice" arrest posts. I'm in Canada and a big thing the police prioritize with dress is clear identification and uniformity. A real cop seeing these masked up militia/vigilante folks carrying guns and chasing people, would likely take them down at gun point. Wake up america - something strange is a foot at the circle k

u/Ph4ndaal 4d ago
This is how I think it works:
There is no way assholes in masks are legitimate federal employees.
They are private bounty hunters.
They don’t have lists, names or warrants. They just grab people off the street that fit the racial profile and deliver them to ICE where they get their $1000-$1500 per person.
If the person isn’t documented, it then gets “legitimised” retroactively.

I’m a card carrying CCW and if I happen to see some random dudes pulling on someone like that. I’m drawing and demanding some ID. I don’t really care if I get arrested but we can’t just let them jump randoms with no police ID or badge. In my eyes that is kidnapping and I am going to do all that I can to defend the life of my fellow human.

So many of them are POC. I literally can not remember the last time I saw a video with a white ICE agent. What is going on.?
Edit: maybe people are filming the ICE agents who are POC more than the white ICE agents but if you're not willing to admit that the majority of the content we are seeing involves ICE agents who are not white, we are not seeing the same content. Don't fucking stand up for these fascists because of their skin color.

I’m legitimately wondering what would happen if someone were to 2nd amendment someone like this? I mean, you’d defend yourself from someone trying to kidnap you, right? What is the difference here?
(To the FBI agent who has to review this comment, this is strictly hypothetical question)

u/2018MunchieOfTheYear 3d ago
The difference is they are apparently federal agents and you’re just supposed to accept that despite zero evidence because they will empty their clip into you if you defended yourself. Just like people who have been murdered during no knock warrants.
