.......outside an ICE processing facility in Chicago. The agents, in full riot gear, were characterized as a "Botac", or "Border Patrol Tactical" quick response unit tasked with, apparently, roughing up non-compliant civilians. A cool new name and the maximum amount of top shelf riot gear really does add to the whole cosplay experience for those folks. Their gas masks were useful as they were deploying clouds of tear gas right from the get-go against the peaceful protestors, Admittedly the protestors were blocking an entry gate because, you know, "civil disobedience", but the rampant testosterone levels were almost as strong as the tear gas. Can you say "brown shirts"?

I wish there were a few photos or links, though.
