So, how are you to distiguish between one of these "Police Forces" and some rogue vigilante militias? Is there some secret hand-signals they use to cross-identify?

Federal law enforcement are obligated to present printed ID cards identifying the officer and their agency. Anyone unwilling or unable to do so is an armed civilian in violation of DCs open carry laws, and the DC Metro Police should be notified.

The law obligates them to present ID, but they have refused and faced no consequences from either DC Metro Police or their own superiors.

Laws are worth zero if the law enforcers ignore them with impunity - a lesson familiar from Caribbean and African banana republics.

Hopefully this results in successful civil lawsuits against these individuals on the basis that qualified immunity does not extend to these individuals because they didn't follow ID laws.

It might not be the justice people want, but taking away people's money is the most effective means of instituting change in the USA. It's entirely the reason that company's try to eliminate our right to sue them.
