So ... how long before we see copycat abductions ?

An unmarked car pulls up, men in camo gear with no IDs but plenty of guns jump out, grab someone and stuff them in the car, and the car drives off. Was it the feds? Or Mexican narco-terrorists (some have decided kidnapping is more lucrative than drug-running)? Or a local gang? Or maybe the KKK or other white supremacists? If people think it's probably the feds, they'll assume there's no point in reporting it to law enforcement authorities, buying the perpetrators a lot of time.

We don't need our government inspiring organized crime, much less creating new tactics for them to imitate. We do need the current AG to face impeachment.

decommissioned police vehicles and fake badges or otherwise posed as undercover law enforcement to pull over victims is a long list.
