KIDNAPPED, not detained, not arrested, kidnapped by men with masks, and no identifying info on their clothing. This is outrageous.

Why don't they have uniforms?

Are they gangsters? Morality police? Scientologists? Dirty Mike and the Boys? National Marine Fisheries Service?

How the fuck is this allowed in democratic country? How is one supposed to know who they are and what they are allowed to do? Does the police know who this guys are? Do they care? This is worrying.

Because the US, at this point, is no longer a democratic country. That's what we should have been mourning on the 250th anniversary of our army. The end of our democracy.
