You know what I bet would help? If actual ICE agents showed their faces and IDs and had warrants instead of just jumping out of a rental F150 in masks and tactical paintball gear and grabbing people's babies and punching old people. Just a thought.

Meanwhile, in Raleigh, North Carolina, Carl Thomas Bennett was arrested for allegedly impersonating an ICE officer and sexual assaulting a woman at a Motel 6 threatening to deport her if she didn’t comply, according to CNN affiliate WRAL.

Police reports indicated that Bennett, 37, “threatened to deport the victim if she did not have sex with him,” and “displayed a business card with a badge on it,” according to WRAL.

Ah, rape.

You can't impersonate an officer when officers are doing everything in their power to not be recognized as officers. No face, name tag, department, badge, uniform, warrant, marked government vehicle, standard issue side arm, etc. If no one is a cop then everyone can pretend to be a cop.

Who could have forseen this could happen?

I'm engaging, violently, with a gun, any masked man that molests me or my family. My wife is a legal, brown immigrant. I am a gun nut. I am practiced and I train.

This isn't bravado, it's the reality I live. I leave the front curtains open so I can see incoming threats. I close those curtains at night so they can't see me. I'm scared shitless.

Some of ya'll "guns BAD" liberals need to take a history class. I'll die with my boots on thank you very much.

Heres a crazy idea. make them wear uniforms with no masks and badges. Crazy I know.

genuinely, if i was american, i'd make sure to get a license to carry just in case this ever happened to me. anyone not identifying themselves trying to stuff me in an umarked vehicle is a kidnapper and will be treated as such.

Wait, you mean criminals are impersonating the guys that look and act like criminals? How odd.

"Johnson was charged with three counts of kidnapping and one count each of impersonating a law enforcement officer, petty larceny, assault and battery, according to jail records."

This is what cop behavior is legally described as when you aren't a cop.

Fucking excellent.

Well, not the crime and the general scumbaggery, but the more this happens the more justified you’ll be gunning down a random person claiming to be law enforcement as they attempt to illegally detain people. Every time an ice agent dies an angel gets its wings - if it’s from a legally defensible bullet from a patriot they get to cum too.

Do your part assholes.

The literal only difference beetween these kids and ICE is that ICE gets paid.

The obvious answer is to beat the crap out of anyone who claims to be an ICE officer.

To me it sounds more like the cops are impersonating civilians.

There's an extremely simple solution to this problem

Everyone should just dress up like ICE everywhere ... you don't have to do anything violent or illegal .. just go about your day as an ICE agent.

Going shopping, dress up like ICE ... anyone asks, just say you're ICE

Going to the movies? dress up like ICE

Going to visit grandma? dress up like ICE

Going to a wedding? dress up like ICE with a hoodie, ball cap, sunglasses and mask

Once everyone everywhere is ICE ... ICE will be less likely to bother people

How is this Possible? The Republicans RUNNING our Country have made SURE ICE is Well Uniformed, Legally Acting and ALWAYS Identifiable! And if NOT the Republicans running our Country have been SWIFT to Promote them!

Criminals are impersonating other criminals who are under the power of a criminal

Criminalception!!

authorities issue national warning

Instead of just stopping the behavior that makes this even possible lol

This article is from February, I'm sure there've been a bunch more since then.

Who knew sending unidentified masked domestic terrorists to abduct people off the street into unmarked vehicles could lead to problems?

Fascism, folks. Always stupid. Always dangerous.

The criminals are impersonating criminals.

You know, this wouldn’t be as much of an issue if they had to, I don’t know, IDENTIFY THEMSELVES.

As in the famous documentary Blazing Saddles

Guy on the left looks like a methhead.
