We are moving closer to living in a police state

I never thought I'd see the day when we'd witness U.S. "stormtroopers" kidnapping other Americans without identifying themselves or issuing arrest warrants on American soil.
Really? You don't trust citizens to do what's right so you want an enforcement mechanism to make sure they are complying. What did you think that mindset would lead to?
Well this is kind of crap you get when you demand the federal government takes control.
Sooooooooooooo...an executive order from the President mandating wearing masks in indoor businesses and other public settings during the pandemic is equivalent to Federal stormtroopers grabbing up protesters in unmarked vehicles??!?

Mandate. You have, for weeks conveniently ignored the question of what enforcement mechanism should be used in that mandate so your opinion carries zero weight on this issue.
Um....stormtroopers carting the maskless away?
Naw, I was thinking more along the lines of a fine.
Yeah, I assume you are trying to compare this to mask mandates, which is beyond stupid.
Before this gets derailed into a completely ignorant comparison to masks, I have a real question about this. What happens if a US citizen, who isnt breaking the law, shoots and kills someone who is trying to take them? Will the pro gun people defend that action? Or because this is being done at the behest of Trump will the 2nd amendment no longer apply? The head of DHS has said this will be expanded into more cities (and likely is going on in more than just Portland already), so you know at some point this is going to lead to violence if it does continue.
Our Second Amendment Gun Fetishists warned us that this type of Government Crap was gonna happen and we needed to have our shotguns handy and ready for revolution...
...during the Obama Administration.
100% behind the shooter in that scenario. We have a natural right to protect ourselves. If an officer of the law doesn't identify themselves then they are considered a kidnapper in this scenario.
Yes, in the sense that they are both overstepping the powers that they have been given by the constitution.Sooooooooooooo...an executive order from the President mandating wearing masks in indoor businesses and other public settings during the pandemic is equivalent to Federal stormtroopers grabbing up protesters in unmarked vehicles??!?
Its funny how that rarely gets brought up by the left unless they are giving political speeches about how we need to impeach Trump.
Biden better be a little nervous. We could have our own night of the long knives.
