D.U. Legal/Legislation experts - could states pass anti masking laws for ICE? [View all]


Just watched another video showcasing the thuggishness, brutality, and utter disregard for the law being carried out nationwide.

Is it possible for states to enact laws requiring these gangsters to identify themselves and show their faces?

If it is, blue state governments need to get off their asses and get it done, fast.

I would very much like anyone who knows to let myself and other DUets know any and all legal measures being undertaken to rein in Steven Miller's gestapo.

And I'm pretty certain targeting Latinos and other brown groups of people is a dry run for the end goal of doing the same for all who dissent.

I am still in shock that Democrats were in power and allowed this to happen, because they felt compelled to respect institutional norms that were happily smashed shortly thereafter.
