Well, the Gestapo probably faced an increase in resistance when they started rounding people up too. Don't do an evil job, and you won't get attacked.

What you think is irrelevant to your original premise in which you were proven wrong. Would you prefer to continue backpacking or move on to your next thoroughly incorrect set of statements?

ICE agents are also in the category of the protective witness program, just like those who testify against organized crime members. Those who would like to identify them and do them in are very similar...it isn't your standard LEO job, not by a long shot.

Yup.

I also forgot to mention that not only is there an app (that CNN encouraged the use of IIRC) for tracking ICE teams' whereabouts, but there's been a glut of threats from the left to dox them.

I'd go so far as to say that if masks were optional and someone chose not to wear one, he / she either didn't care about his / her life or was dumber than a bag o' flour.

So, a guy with a mask and a gun, and no identification approaches you. "You're coming with me". No badge, refuses to show ID. Your response?
 
Well for starters it wouldn't be just one guy; it'd be a team and therefore pretty-obvious that it's an authority.

Also, you ignore the fact that they actually say / shout "border security" or "ICE" or whatever. I believe it's mandatory for them to identify what they are / who they're representing to arrestees.

To answer your question, I'd be compliant for-sure. Only a fool would do a runner. :dunno:

Because criminals never work in teams?

Ok, so a "team" of criminals with masks and guns just has to shout "Border Security" to get you to go wherever they want you to?

And this is the police state you guys VOTED FOR?

Dide, chill.

I can smell a criminal a mile off, so Monkey Math™ tells us:

Smell 1 criminal 1 mile away
Smell 10 criminals 10 miles away

Your math is unimpeachable.

However, fake ICE impersonation crimes have already been going on, as criminals realize that, like I said above, all you need is a mask, a gun, shout ICE, and you got an easy kidnapping.
 
US sees spate of arrests of civilians impersonating Ice officers

Police in southern California arrested a man suspected of posing as a federal immigration officer this week, the latest in a series of such arrests, as masked, plainclothes immigration agents are deployed nationwide to meet the Trump administration’s mass deportation targets.
 
ICE Impersonations Proliferate Amid the Agency’s Undercover Tactics
Pretending to be an ICE agent to commit crimes is disturbingly easy.

by Naomi Bethune June 24, 2025

Over the past few months, there have been chronic reports of individuals posing as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials, in many cases using these guises to commit unlawful acts. Impersonation of law enforcement is not an uncommon occurrence in the United States, but the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration policies, and the particular ways in which ICE enjoys anonymity, have led to increased opportunities for such behavior, endangering and exploiting immigrants and their communities, regardless of their status.

It is indisputable that ICE agents regularly exhibit behavior that, if it were to be displayed by anyone else, would be considered criminal activity. The detention of individuals like Rümeysa Öztürk, a Tufts University graduate student who was seized in broad daylight by masked ICE agents, fits the defining features of kidnapping but is not viewed this way when performed by federal immigration officials. A home security camera in Somerville, Massachusetts, captured the moment when Öztürk was accosted by ICE agents dressed in plain clothes and face masks, with the agent who first approaches her quickly grabbing her hands and later handcuffing them behind her back. She was ushered into an unmarked car and held in a federal facility for six weeks.
 
Maybe, but I still reckon the masks are justifiable even if we the public see it as dystopian-looking, which of course it is.
