    Hold on, so let me get this straight, they’re being arrested for interfering with a kidnapping? Because the officers were in plain clothes, did not identify themselves, and one of them was wearing a balaclava. Mf, you could be anybody. Fuck that. There’s a number of states where, if you’re being stopped, the officer must produce some kind of proof of their status as a law enforcement officer if asked. Ofc, that was before we were in the dictatorship. Now, cops get the choice between identifying themselves and possibly getting their family members to launch a GoFundMe page.
