A judge ruled on Aug. 3 that New York cannot ban federal agents from wearing masks or balaclavas, or require them to wear visible identification.


quote:

New York's law to ban face coverings and implement identification measures was included among several law enforcement policies in the state budget bill that was signed into law by Gov. Kathy Hochul, a D in May and came into effect in June, according to D'Agostino's ruling.

The definition of face coverings includes any "opaque mask, garment, helmet, headgear, balaclava, ski mask, neck gaiter, or tactical mask," but excludes transparent face shields, medical masks, or respirators.

Good! But, I thought we had already established this. Damn activist judges.

But, there’s no such thing as lawfare (rolls eyes)

Progs started referring to lawful arrests as kidnapping about a year ago and you’re still loving the term?

That does help the rest of us to identify the retard in the room. So thanks for that.

This was stupid and unconstitutional from the jump. A waste of time and resources to virtue signal.

If they are REALLY American citizens... they just won the 4th amendment lawsuit lottery with pro bono representation from activist legal groups. Why you sad?

The state banning the federal government from this is so blatantly against the Constitution, via primarily Article VI Clause 2, that the non-biologist on the Supreme Court couldn't have even justified siding with New York.

New York knew it was dead before the ink dried. But as usual they placated to the base with useless laws and wasted time and resources.

Politics: where if my guy does it, it's ok. If the other guy does it, it's not. Worst of all, everyone pretends this isn't so.

Holy shite, man. You are fricked up in the noggin'. Your side tried to force an entire country to wear masks that didn't even work, shame people, attack people who didn't bow down. Rioters were fine to wear them while beating people in the streets and burning businesses to the ground. Now you have a problem with ICE agents protecting themselves and their families from crazies like you. frick off!

Masks so A-holes can't identify law enforcement agents and they can't find out where the law enforcement agents live and attack them and their family members good.

Masks for COVID didn’t work, per science himself Dr. Fauci.

Masks for ICE work, per they keep their identities confidential so Marxists can’t kill them.

Do you support making all law enforcement agents’ identities confidential?
