They can ignore it at their peril. Just because you're a "Federal officer", doesn't mean you can break state law.

I cannot wait to see the video from a 3 AM no-knock raid on a hotel full of ICE fascists.

That's why you deputize large groups of coordinated citizens. They see a masked man who could be impersonating a federal agent, and that person refuses to provide ID? Several dozen shots fired by a dozen or more deputies.

Doesn't sound like a crime was committed, does it?
