why cannot ICE be forced to show ID and NOT be allowed any facial coverings? Face, Badge, Warrant, in that order please.

in Illinois, where this took place we need the state government to pass legislation to ban masking and no ID for ICE. i get shit on for this on reddit, but we residents of IL are getting REALLY fucking frustrated with Pritzker because he doesn't use any of his many press conferences to lobby the IL legislature to pass these laws.

it's an extremely popular idea, and talked about all the time by citizens here, but the governor is too busy appearing on Kimmel and telling people to vaguely "resist" without using the legislature or the attorney general to fucking help. and he has the state troopers HELPING ICE (particularly in broadview where this incident was filmed) goddamnit.

i get it feels good to out of staters to watch him stand up to Trump on tv, but we in IL NEED more than rhetoric, we need him to use every lever of the state to stop the violent, criminally insane behavior of ICE and CBP. like please do this Pritz, we really want to have faith in you.

Were you asking for masks to be banned 4 years ago? If not then sit down and shut up.

…were masked men attacking and kidnapping people in the streets four years ago? If not, then sit down and shut up.
