BLM-sparked protests may have died down in many cities, but they are still going strong in Portland. Stories have been surfacing recently of protesters being detained by federal officers who have no identification on them and have not been identifying themselves verbally. Accusations that people are being detained without probable cause are also plenty.
The Oregon DOJ is suing several federal agencies for civil rights abuses.
So I’m asking: is this a violation of civil rights? Should federal agents be identifying themselves somehow?
