Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn wants the identities of federal officials carrying out President Donald Trump’s deportation campaign to remain secret for security reasons. To that end, she introduced the Protecting Law Enforcement from Doxxing Act, which would make it illegal to publish the name of a federal law enforcement officer with the intent to obstruct a criminal investigation or immigration operation. Skinner, for his part, has proposed the opposite: to publish as many names of the officers and their collaborators as possible.
This list is for future prosecutions, and as such doesn’t run afoul of this proposed law.
We need to publish home addresses, make them scared.
“I want to publicly shame them into resigning, because they don’t wear masks for safety. They wear them because they know their neighbors won’t invite them to dinner anymore, that their children or their children’s friends’ parents won’t want them at a baseball game. They care about their personal lives, but not about their safety,” Skinner said in a telephone interview with EL PAÍS from the Netherlands, where he lives.
This is the way.
Funny how Reddit doesn’t like this.
If they’ve done nothing wrong then there’s no reason to hide.
i woudlnt be surprised if most of them are “unhireables” in other jobs. the people that cant even get hired by walmart and amazon due thier behaviour that they are knowingly aware of, where they take anyone.
People who flunked out of police academy for being too stupid and violent
Good.
It’s a cruel twist of fate that the only ICE agent who doesn’t hide their face is Kristi Noem.
She has hidden her face behind a plastic mask permanently sewn on
If your police cover their faces, they are not doing good work.
Bandits
The whole masked officers thing really got me wondering how society would respond to a Batman like figure. I don’t think I realized bofore the ICE raids how absolutely horrible the concept of masked superheros was for a free society, even after consuming some media that tried to focus on this issue, like the Watchmen.
Police have never existed to serve the populace, they solely exist to protect the capital of the wealthy.
Police are a Status Quo maintenence force. The status quo fucking sucks.
But that’s on a different level than being allowed to cover your face while destroying lives and saying it is justified because occasionally you enforce laws
Define “never”. Never in as in never in the history of 21st century America? Pretty tame assertion. Never in the anthropological sense? That would be completely farcical.
Does this guy even know a time before 2010?
Uh… WTF are you smoking? You got any references to back up that pompous retort, or are you banking on the confidence of your palm alone to carry that wet fart aloft?
Only 100? Let’s get those numbers up!
I genuinely do not consider that to be controversial.
Fascists should be afraid for their safety, as a general rule. When they’re not, it’s a problem. As we can see now.
You got it, if your job is to terrify and kidnap people, you should also be at least afraid for your life !
There’s a reason why they hide their faces and want to hide their identities … they know what they are doing is wrong. They’re gambling on the idea that if their fascist government stays in place, they’ll be rewarded … but if their fascist government fails, then they can go back to normal society if no one knows who they are.
If what they are doing is justified, moral and can be easily defended, then they would have no need to hide themselves.
but if their fascist government fails, then they can go back to normal society of no one knows who they are.
It should be trivial for a theoretical subsequent competent government to identify these people, but I’ve just about lost all hope that anyone will face consequences for doing fascist shit.
Agreed, these are masked criminals and we have the right to share who they are.
And even if they weren’t criminals, they’re claiming to be law enforcement which normally requires you to identify yourself.
The controversy is not that you agree with this, it’s that some people don’t.
The controversy is coming when this list is contraband.
Way more controversial that my tax dollars.oay people that are trying to conceal their identities…?
Like surely. I don’t see an argument between clandestine tax dollars thugs and a desire to clarify that clandestine bullshit.
FAFO.
When ICE is violently attacking civilians, there’s nothing controversial about naming and shaming the fascists involved.
Or prosecuting. I hope they get their comeuppance.
MOAR MOAR MOAR!!!
