I wonder what they would do if I, a peaceful citizen without any criminal or disruptive intent, simply offered them my opinion about how inappropriate it is that they are wearing masks. I suspect it would end with me being wrestled to the ground and handcuffed. - ThreadSky

It is true that sometimes New York City is frightening. For example today these men were loitering in the hallway of the 12th floor of the federal building.

They look like armed robbers!

Yes but we all need to start being willing to get arrested. Film it. Sue.

I tend to agree.

All these loser are wearing sneakers 👟. None of them would last 2 minutes under a coordinated takedown. They would be cuffed and unmasked in 3 minutes.

I think law enforcement should require a judge's warrant to hide their identities in public. There are special situations when it may be appropriate, but it's becoming standard procedure and it truly sickens me.

prchovanec.bsky.social•1 day ago

I think it's safe to assume that any law enforcement officer who wears a mask in the normal line of duty isn't there to protect me, he's there to intimidate me.

If you're there to arrest or transport the head of the Sinaloa cartel, and there's a real chance they'll come for your family, fine - get a warrant to wear a mask. Otherwise I want to see the faces and badges of people purporting to enforce the law.

Exactly. A judge can approve hiding identity and if course under cover work. The rest? You work for the people.

Quoting Mexican actor Alfonso Bedoya in the late ‘40’s film ‘The Treasure of the Sierra Madre”: ‘We don’t gotta show you no stinkin’ badges!!’…

Trying to figure out the best way to phrase this, but imo it’s a shocking symbol of declining freedom in America. Transparency and impartiality in law enforcement and justice were once hallmarks of our system. We are significantly less free today.

My goodness. Do they know this is how Russia operates? They must be making an enormous amount of extra pay. That's the only way this makes sense. They are the worker bees for the oligarchy.

Honestly, they should just turn up the thermostat in that building.

WAY up. WAY WAY WAAAYYY up...

You could ask if they complied with the masks mandate during Covid. I think I know their answer already!

dagies.bsky.social•1 day ago

We should announce a pandemic and a law that masks are required for all people to wear in public in order to stop the spread. That should fix the problem instantly.

Vest says police. Since when is the ‘police’ uniform blue jeans and sneakers?

The time for silence is over. The corrupt and complicit must be exposed. They must be held accountable, not just in history books but in real time by real people.

Stand up. Stay loud. Refuse to be ignored. Our voices matter. And together, they become impossible to silence.

Criticism messes with their head and would be interpreted as obstructing their law-enforcement duties. Babies.

I really hope that at a minimum the masks are incredibly hot and uncomfortable and cause painful rashes and infections.

People should just start dressing like them when they are out or going to court house

They are bounty hunters thugs and should be barred from the buildings.

If not beaten

Horrendous. Also, can’t believe a black man would act in this manner.

Badges look fake I’d call the FBI and 911.

Listen, if muslim women want to cover their face, it's their right. Just compliment them on their Hijab

If you claim you need to wear a mask so that you won't be identified and you and your family won't be targeted, maybe you know you're doing something very bad

If you aren't doing anything wrong, you have no reason to hide

tompaine1776.bsky.social•1 day ago

- who the fuck are they?
- when were they hired?
- did they have background checks?
- do they have law enforcement experience?
- do they have criminal records?
- who is directing them day to day?

WHO THE FUCK ARE THEY?!
