Is the following too extreme...or hateful...or even kooky?

What if "they" gave a war … costume party and everybody came "cooly" dressed the same?
You know? Like everyday was Halloween (would that be legal?)
So that EVERYONE you saw were wearing the same, what do you call it…uniform… bought at your local costume store?
Eye glasses, (dark to not hurt eyes), goggles (to keep out blowing...dust), fake helmut, super soaker squirt gun, but no masks (they're illegal to wear in public, right?)
Be a pretty good game trying to identify friends who all look alike for a good laugh or a party ice-breaker.

For a fleeting moment.

If everybody just wore militia gear everyday and showed up wherever ICE shows up, they'd have a hard time figuring out who is one of them and who is not. I think masks and neck gaiters would be worth wearing,it would help to confuse them. You could act like you're escorting their prey to some vehicle but let them go instead, and disappear yourself. They wouldn't know who did what.

It's just a thought but worth exploring for some adventurous types.

Imagine 10,000 people dressed like that at one of the rallies!
Who's who - new meaning.

Hey are you ICE? I don't believe you. Show me some ID! Yuck yuck!

Something worth exploring, you know? We have to think outside the box they inhabit. When they come careening into town,put on some cammo garb and go confuse some idiots... I know, it's almost cruel but they deserve all the shit that flies their way.


Remember, those guys are not any smarter than their orange savior.
