It's more likely that they are hiding their identity because they've lost their previous jobs in enforcement due to disciplinary problems, or they have a criminal background or they simply would not pass the background checks to get into other enforcement positions.
And they have a lot of nerve crying about being doxxed while they actively doxx American citizens.

(101,346 posts)Don't recall which day, the person suggested, since most the ice fucks who've been arrested for misconduct or shootings were persons of color that one reason for mask wearing is to cover up the fact that it's not a bunch of angry white guys rounding people up, it's brown people indicating that, once again they have brown people doing the dirty work... and they can't admit it.
I tend to think that video person had a valid point, not the only reason but a strong candidate for a good reason.
