    Why did no one take any of the infinite opportunities to take the green dude’s mask off from behind? He’s definitely bolting if that happens, real ICE or not. And with rulings from judges against wearing them, I’d think you have decent legal standing even in the slim chance something comes of it.

      My thoughts exactly. You want them to leave quickly? Rip off their mask and run away. When their faces start circulating and later retribution can be delivered, then you’ll see progress.

        Exactly. Lots of people think this probably wasn’t legit ICE anyway, not that any is legit.

        As much as I may want to assault them, I’m not going to pretend I’m actually brave enough. But I would 100% risk pulling that mask off while he’s riding the victim like a horse.

          “Legit ICE” seems like an oxymoron at this point, but I get what you’re saying.

          TBF, let them pull their own mask down for you. Creatively and rapidly apply a volume of water atop their heads and all of a sudden: that mask is an instant waterboarding cosplay.

          Ain’t nobody breathing through freshly wetted fabric. 🤷🏼‍♂️

          Shit, make it any liquid (coffee, juice, wiper fluid, piss, etc) and they’re gonna be sticky/oily/stinky/gross on top of wet, too.

          You’re welcome. 😘

            The chances one would have to do that would likely be while they’re attempting to ride an innocent like a horsey. Best to avoid dousing unintended recipients with anything gross in that case, although I’m sure they’d be somewhat relieved to be free, albeit covered in piss.

              Personally, I’d take piss over pork especially if it caused the latter to squeal and whine and let me go. 🫡

      They were walking the line of getting shot. I’m strong enough to have grabbed them by the belt and neck collar and tossed them to the side, but reaching for the belt would look like reaching for the gun.
