they don't even identify themselves as law enforcement, show badges, show warrants for arrest, read people their Miranda rights, etc. They break traffic laws all the time when ramming their vehicles into people's cars. They even wound and abuse people handcuffed in their custody.

MAGA enjoyed the 2020 police brutality against protesters so much they decided to ramp it up exponentially. They hide their faces to avoid any legal liability in future.

America doesn't need a masked armed paramilitary force with a budget larger than the entire Russian military. We've seen this kind of stuff in Germany, North Korea, China, Soviet Union, Middle East, Northern Ireland, etc. with disastrous results. It's disgusting to see it here.
