I am Amused

So California Governor Gavin Newsom signs the law enforcement mask ban into law, and the usual suspects completely lose their sh%$.

Here's a suggestion for all of you folks, if you have to remain anonymous to do your job, you are not doing God's work

ICE made the bed and now California law enforcement officers have to lie in it. The flashpoint of ICE backlash occurred in Los Angeles, as Trump’s mass deportation desires manifested itself in the form of masked officers chasing day laborers through Home Depot parking lots.

As protests ensued, ICE officers continued to operate without face masks [sic, should read "with face masks"] and a deliberate dearth of agency insignias. Then Trump added fuel to a mostly nonexistent fire by sending in the National Guard (illegally) along with a few hundred Marines.

In response, California has done what it can. First, it sued the government, pointing out the illegality of the National Guard mobilization. Then the legislature went further, passing a ban on use of identity-obscuring masks by law enforcement officers, whether they’re local or federal. Of course, California’s ban on federal officer face-wear probably won’t hold up in court, but it at least means those deciding to ride shotgun with Trump’s secret police won’t be able to hide their identities from members of public observing them perform their public duties in public.

So, we now have sheriffs and US attorneys with the brain power of a fart from a flea claiming that this is a threat against law enforcement, and falsely claiming that criminals are allowed to wear masks. (No, at least not while criming.  It's a misdemeanor to wear mask in furtherance of committing a crime in California.)

They are so f%$#ing stoopid
