Taking a cue from a graphic novel and the subsequent movie, is there any law in the United States preventing common citizens from dressing in a ball cap, face covering, cap, and sunglasses when traveling in public? Add a vest, and I’d say you’ve nailed that fashion trend?

    I’m not sure if that’s a good idea to start as a trend. It’d make it easier for actual ICE agents to hide in plain sight.

    I don’t think making it easier for state-endorsed terrorism to fly under the radar is a good strategy for stopping it. If you physically intervene with every terrorist-fashioned individual you see you’re much more effective when they’re all actually ICE and not just trolls. And I’d very much recommend that course of action.

      I’d be shocked if this wasn’t happening already.

      The mob could kidnap someone in broad daylight just with masks and bulletproof vests (even more convenient for them) and half the public would be convinced it must be the victim’s fault.

      Literally ICE has shown that the public will not intervene when masked, plainclothed thugs with no ID are just ambushing and grabbing people off the street, so anyone else could probably do it and get away with it, too.
