House Democrats introduced legislation that if passed would force federal immigration enforcement agents to wear a public-facing identification in the form of a clearly visible and scannable QR code during enforcement actions.
House Democrats propose QR code ID requirement for ICE, CBP agents

Imagine trying to scan an officer’s QR code as he’s pepper spraying you and his buddy is wailing on you with a baton. Or “oops, there’s some ‘mud’ so the codes not scannable!”
Saddest opposition party in existence.
How pathetic.
I’m sure they’ll comply with that. If they do, I’m certain they’ll not obscure them like they have their name tags and allow us all ample time and opportunity to scan these as they gas, beat and murder us. Come the fuck on. Ditch the whole agency, it’s beyond reform.
They’d just shoot you and take your phone as you try and scan it.
Ban wearing of those face coverings.
Dogshit solution from controlled opposition
How about you introduce legislation that forces federal immigration enforcement agents to require full Congressional oversight and consent for all their activities? And to require some actual training and bare minimum standards of conduct? And body cameras and other public transparency measures?
You think putting a QR code on their vests and compelling people to run up with their phones and scan them isn’t going to result in more people getting shot because these clowns “feel threatened”?
Seems bad opsec to be scanning random QRs while you’re out and about *especially* at an ICE deployment or action against ICE.
As opposed to just forcing them to identify themselves like every other LEO is supposed to do??
Granted I’m hungover and probably not the sharpest tool in the shed right now, but it feels like we skipped some steps to the dumbest possible solution here.
A fucking QR code? Really???
How about clearly visible, large print name tags and badge numbers. Also banning masks and mandatory body cams.
I’m sure there’s a few other things, but these simple things would be a nice start.
Im all for oversight but fuck a qr code. Take this tech and shove it up your butt
And if they don’t are citizens allowed to detain the unlawful?
Scanning the QR code would probably your device (and you) to a database that shouldn’t exist.
Identifying them is worth what exactly? Have they had trouble identifying any of the “agents” that murdered people in broad daylight so far? Every murder is filmed from 5 different angles including one of the agents themselves.
That took long enough
They’re just going to put other QR codes over it, or people will edit them in photos for phishing
Ha! Nice one!
Why not force them to wear recording body cams as well – whose recordings are stored off-site?
Or just get rid of the masks.
The fact that there isn’t already legislation requiring identification is pathetic. Let alone a fucking QR code, probably the easiest thing in the world to make unreadable.
Even if applied, what’s stopping them from lining it with malware that adds you to a database?
The democrats are fucking pathetic
Log-in my device to the protest? Sure, why not? I’m sure it won’t be used against me.
I don’t know who’s running strategy for Democrats but they suck at it.
‘Don’t shoot me, I have your QR code 😏’
They’d marker in a block before ever going out
Democrats are pathetic and weak.
I can’t scan the QR code on some old restaurant menu so how will it work when getting pepper sprayed and shot at?
Thats a completely reasonable request. It has a 0 percent chance of happening when the criminals are in charge.
Better than nothing but a QR code isn’t practical.
Show their badge number or whatever they use.
*Sorry your arm is cut off…here’s a bandaid.*
never anything more aggressive than a sternly worded letter from these fucking CLOWNS! every time.
Thanks house democrats. This is exactly what the people of america needed from ICE. Another completely pointless regulation from the most inept “opposition” ever. Fucking *MTG* is doing more to fight trump than these guys are
Okay, and if they still don’t wear identification? What are House Democrats going to do about it? This is all pointless bullshit until there are consequences. They’ve murdered two people in the street in broad daylight and not even been charged with a crime yet.
Why can’t they just show their faces no masks and have a name tag like military does?
