Call it NICE (Not Immigration & Custom Enforcement)
"Where are you taking these prisoners?"
"These are prisoners."
"Yes. Where are you taking them?"
"I am--taking them--to imprison them--in prison."
“For the protection of our detainees and agents we cannot disclose the location of our temporary processing facility at this time.”
We already are dressed like ICE agents, minus the face covering. You know, because they dress just like anyone else and don't identify themselves at all.
Yes, then hold them like you don't like them to your car and take them home. This is a brilliant idea.
YES! Finally, my dad-bod is gonna come in handy. To the closet I go to don the most middle-age cop polo I can find! We're playing dress-up!
I wonder at what point of khakis and face covering you cross the line into impersonating an officer.
It's not stolen valor either because they have none
I’m picturing the conversation with the ICE guys. “No we’re with unit 2. Yeah the other unit. You guys can go get lunch, we’ve got this one.”
There's a small possibility that ICE could start pretending to be not-ICE escorts, but that would require them to have an IQ above room temperature
Public Freakout

Assuming we think we can get through this with our current laws intact, documenting everything for them is what we should do.
