Rep. Ritchie Torres is introducing a bill called the Rapid Identification Act to help people identify ICE agents who hide their identities. “There is nothing the Trump administration fears more than transparency and accountability,” a spokesman for Torres said recently.

The Rapid Identification Act requires ICE agents to wear a QR code on their uniforms that, when scanned, directs the scanner to a website that contains details about the officer’s identity, including name and badge number.

“Yes, that’s fine.”
“What a great idea! This is also very practical and easy to do when the restaurant menu is annoying everyone and someone has a gun pointed at you!”
“Trying to scan a QR code that had ICE agents choke me, but first I had to watch a 10-second FanDuel commercial.”

“ICE is literally taking a shot at mothers. And Democrats want to respond ‘Well, I’m sorry, can I scan your QR code so I can speak to your manager?'”
“If you were really nice, they would smash your phone after you took that picture.”
