Worse.
Gestapo did not wear masks and they had their legal documentation/warrants ready and available. They were not hiding.
All public facing media was controlled by the state in Germany. That's not possible anymore without killing all the electronics and means of sharing media, aka the internet.
I mean.. In some ways maybe that is not worse. Perhaps there is some shame associated with working for ICE.
It's not shame they feel, it's about self-preservation. They know that if everyone knew who they were they would be reprisals.
If anybody knew who any of these guys were, and worked out where they lived, I wouldn't give them 24 hours. Eventually they'll deport the wrong person and someone with a gun will decide that the ends justify the means, and that'll be that. It will probably spark a massive military escalation on trump's part, but it won't matter to them.
True, there ought to be!
If camera phones and the internet were available then they absolutely would have hidden their face, in the beginning at least
