Judge Rules Federal Agents Don’t Have To Identify Themselves While Making Arrests In Portland

Police typically have to identify themselves before serving warrants or making arrests in America, but a federal judge in Portland recently ruled federal agents in Portland, Oregon, do not have to identify themselves when arresting suspects.

U.S. District Judge Michael Mosman ruled Friday that Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum lacked standing to sue the federal government. Rosenblum had sued the Trump administration alleging the federal agents deployed in Portland violated protester’s and rioter’s constitutional rights. Mosman ruled Rosenblum hadn’t articulated a state interest beyond those constitutional rights, PJ Media reported.

Poorly written.

Cops may not need to identify "themselves as individuals",but they damn sure have to identify themselves as LEO's and show their badges.

If they don't have to identify themselves, do us Civilians no longer need to identify ourselves?

Excuse me, sir. My name is Bob and I just happened to notice that you threw a rock through the window of that store and followed up with some sort of item that clearly was on fire, thereupon setting the contents of the store afire. Hate to inconvenience you, but that sort of thing - vandalism, arson and such - generally is frowned upon and ... hmmm?

   I said, what was your name again?

Oh, Bob. With a B. Anyway, I'm going to have to arrest you.

   But I'm protesting George Floyd. You can't do that. I'm too woke to be arrested.

Well, actually, even if you're protesting the death of George Floyd (and not Mr. Floyd himself), I still have an obligation under Oregon law to arrest you because, as I noted, you set that building on fire. So sorry.

   But Bob! I feel like we're on a first name basis here, and ...

Sorry, didn't catch your name, so we're not really.

   Oh, right. It's Trevor.

Nice to meet you, Trevor. You're under arrest. Put your hands behind your back.

Already in this thread, http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,409128.msg2255931.html#msg2255931 (http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,409128.msg2255931.html#msg2255931) .

This thread's OP article title is misleading. The ruling was simply that the State of Oregon did not have standing, a right to sue. The ruling did not address what the State of Oregon wanted forced on Federal officers.

But riddle me this: What will Antifoid/BLM thugs do if a Federal officer wears a name tag? Hint ... they won't be sending flowers!

What is going on in Portland?  I saw a picture on here and most are freaks.  Green hair, shaved hair, pierced nose, crazy hair, tattooed faces.  All a sign of mental illness.
