2020 Elections - Trump FIRED

[Peter Brown]

It seems un-American for cops to wear non-traditional apparel that doesn’t indicate they are with law enforcement. I am less troubled, though still think it is the wrong way to go, for cops to not wear ID, cover up ID, or refuse to identify themselves.

Seems to me that this is yet another one of the many, many reforms that will need to be undertaken after Trump is out of office. There should be a federal law requiring all federal, state, and local law-enforcement to be dressed in clearly identifiable law-enforcement gear, wear nametags, and identify themselves as law-enforcement.

For my money, if a cop is dressed in nondescript ninja-type apparel that doesn’t indicate he is with law-enforcement, he shouldn’t have qualified immunity. If some guy in dark clothing starts attacking me and I fight back, in what universe is it fair to charge me with assaulting a cop when I have no idea he is a cop?

I agree with you, somewhat. The problem lies with the Democratic Party whose silence is a tacit approval of throwing things at cops and worse. If the Portland yo-yo's successfully doxx the police, all bets off.

First things first, how about some major national Democrats coming out and decrying the violence and mayhem? How about them taking ownership of their band of jackbooted thugs marauding through Portland and Seattle every night? If the anarchy would end, there'd be no need for federal law enforcement. Nancy all but approved of the mayhem the other day by saying 'some people will do things' and not openly saying anything negative about Antifa, the paramilitary arm of the Democratic party.

So now you are doubling down and saying there is no accountability!

You are right, this is NOT the police, they were directed to stand down by their local democrat leaders.

No problems whatsoever, regardless of political affiliation. People destroying cities, places of business, need to be stopped, full stop. You are okay with that...why, I do not understand.

And yet, we the De blasio's paying over two dozen cops to protect a BLM painting in the city. If not for double standards, they'd have none at all.

Serious question, the rioters makes there way to your place of business, you okay with these guys attempting to protect your establishment?

DiBlasio is a fool and in the Portland cohort. Doesn’t represent a ton of NY people or any specific movement. No point in tossing his name around.

The guy is single handedly enabling the destruction of one of the worlds great cities—no point tossing his name around.

Lived there for years. Giuliani was overrated, read some Gladwell, it is a pendulum. The decadence that’s come in the past 20yrs is the problem.

You just read your self selected echo chamber periodicals or websites and parrot what is there regardless of truth or any actual experience with this stuff. Live in the real world, don’t just talk about it. Angry.

Not required, which is exactly the problem. No accountability.

This is NOT the police.

This is a federal, unaccountable militia, full combat gear, sent into a city that says get out, into a state that says get out.

But nah, we can't have a national, federal response to COVID. Not a national problem...

Lots of video of violence against people not showing any sort of imminent force threat.

Imagine fellas that this was Obama's response to some white nationalist protestors? Or say the Michigan governor had responded to the armed protestors last spring by sending in a militarized, unmarked police force with orders to clear the Trump carrying, confederate flag carrying, armed idiots out of there? Including those not carrying a weapon, not doing anything more than being idiots and protesting?

No individual ID's, picking up protestors or watchers in the streets who were doing nothing violent at the time...taken not to a police station but to an unknown other building?

Any problem, fellas?

In some ways, I am sympathetic to just letting the place burn. In other ways, I am not certain what the federal government should do when it's their property being burned and not everyone approves of the Democratic mayhem.

Just yesterday in Seattle, the Democratic rioters broke into and looted an Amazon store, and burned down a Starbuck's.

It's obviously apparent that Democratic politicians will do nothing to halt the anarchy. Trump is stuck between a rock and a hard place.

must have been carrying Biden signs

Biden is in trouble. Kanye is going to get 75% to 80% of the black vote. Why wouldn’t black people vote for Yeezy! What have they got to lose?

POLICE in yellow day glo block letters, across his chest & back, should give you a hint.
Also that he identified himself as "Federal Agent" or "US Marshall"

It would be a great hint, except there are tons of photos of hundreds of federal officials not wearing yellow day glo block letters across their chest and back. Or badges. Or ids. Whoops

… you do realize of course that no one can just say they are a "Federal Agent" or "US Marshall". Its illegal. So if someone tells you they are a "Federal Agent" or "US Marshall" even without identification that means they are that. Its a flawless system. What could possibly go wrong?

Plain clothes police make arrests all the time. They identify themselves verbally & show their badge & ID when asked.
Just because cell ph or news media video are not close enough to show the markings does mean they are unidentified.
Not every LEO or NG soldier in riot gear detains or makes arrests.
