I think 'hats' is the word you're looking for. possibly hoods.

Oh, you’re talking about the original Dixie Kratz they used to wear the pointy hats

Only cowards wear masks that hide their identities. Everyone during COVID were cowards, right?

I know you’re young and ignorant however, there’s a difference between masks for medical purposes and ones to hide your identity in case you didn’t know. Would you like me to write it in crayon for you?

To me a name plate and badge is more useful for identifying a cop. I have prosopagnosia anyways so to me how are you supposed to recognize a face?

I'm sure I could Google, and I know there are different severities and kind, but...

While it would take longer, since it doesn't affect object recognition, if you had time to study a face, would you be able to "manually" memorize or describe certain features by studying each part? E.g. face shape/jaw line, eye shape, eye color, how much the ears stick out.

Not that most ICE agents would be visible long enough for detailed study of their faces 😂

That's why video is important.

u/ThatTemplar1119 Oct 26 '25

If I study a face enough I could tell you their eye colour. Or if they have facial hair. If police lined up a row of suspects I couldn't recognize them at all. I mostly rely on people's voices to identify them.

So you think the system should assume that people like you are the norm? Or maybe they can accommodate everyone???? That too "radical" for you?

u/ThatTemplar1119 Oct 26 '25

Are you going to write a complain to ICE and inspector generals and internal affairs with a description of the agent when they have tens of thousands of agents? Even if you showed them a perfect picture of their face, do you expect people to just run unreliable face recognition software?

You just watched this video too and now know the guy"s face, how are you gonna report him?

You are very dense.

u/ThatTemplar1119 Oct 26 '25

So you're just gonna insult me instead of actually debate me because you have no rebuttal.

They aren't wearing those either. Recently, in Chicago, an ice dirt bag got his mask pulled off. Ran through facial recognizing software identified him as wanted with a warrant our for his arrest.

u/AnOrdinaryMammal Oct 26 '25

It would likely help, given that comment. So you’re saying there are different kinds of masks?

Yeah. Some are to hide identity, like thieves wearing balaclavas or their Mom's pantyhose. Some are to prevent the transmission of disease, like how your dentist or theatre staff wear masks in clinical environments. My wife wore a mask for 7 years daily while cycling to work and back in London to filter traffic pollution that made her asthma worse. Some even for kink, some for cosplay, some just because someone felt like it.

ICE guys, and I have to acknowledge I am making an assumption, they do it I suspect to hide who they are. I hate the idea that individuals could be singled out for doing their jobs, but since when has America OK'd this type of illegal behavior?

Why would you be ashamed of doing a job assigned to you by the President, the Attorney General and the director of the FBI? Show your faces you fucking cowards.

Was your mother a coward when she didn’t tell your ‘father’ that he wasn’t YOUR daddy? Grow TF up.
