Ca. bans face mask for law enforcement.

So, if a LEO is ID'ed and he is attacked , injured, killed, or his home vandalized should Ca. legislators and Gruesome be held accountable. I 110% believe they should be.

this law will have zero affect on fed law enforcement officers. Only calif state and local cops are in this.

Why do cops need to wear masks? If they're UC, that's one thing, but if they're in full uniform acting in a LEO capacity, and they refuse to identify themselves, that's extremely sketchy. Accountability ensures quality service in all professions, especially those who get to carry a gun and detain people with near complete impunity.

Because, as in the past, they have been identified, then someone found out who they were and where they lived and caused them problems, Harassed them and their families. It's just that simple. Would yo like to have your family bothered because you were your job.

It’s also naive to think this has anything to do with any “cops” other than ICE.

More performative legislation by Sacramento. ICE will ignore it, Calgov will feel like they “did something,” and local LE won’t dare interfere.

Well, they did write in an exemption for medical reasons. It's a shame that every LEO in CA has come down with a bad head cold. I wouldn't want them to pass that on to any of the illegals they're coming in contact with. Masks on!

See now we're in the territory of regulating "pre crime." Allowing cops to cover their faces because someone might dox them is a slippery slope. If you're a public servant with a public salary paid by taxpayers, and you don't do your job honorably, then that should be known who's responsible. I can't wear a mask at my job so customers can't complain about me. I just have to act in a way that won't give someone a reason to get pissed.

Your arguments hold no water what so ever. You are comparing your desk job to LEO's out here putting their lives on the line. So maybe one in one hundred is not doing his or her job honorably, as you put it, you feel is is just fine to jeopardize all others officers. Maybe there is a spot on the View for you, I think you would fit in just fine.
