To the editor: I learn the article about Sen. Scott Wiener’s (D-San Francisco) proposed laws to ban Immigration and Customs Enforcement and different legislation enforcement officers from sporting masks (“Proposed bill would ban ICE agents, law enforcement from wearing masks in California,” June 16). Whereas he’s at it, Wiener must also broaden his laws to incorporate important penalties for officers who violate the legislation by failing to inform folks why they’re being arrested and by failing to offer them with copies of authorized arrest warrants, signed by a decide. There are scores of movies on social media documenting these unlawful practices by ICE brokers and whoever accompanies them in these arrests. There needs to be severe penalties for legislation enforcement officers (and their contractors) who violate the legislation in California. Nobody is above the legislation, together with ICE.
