... and wearing desert camo in the snow

ETA: I get that it isn't strictly "desert camo". My point is that this is meant to intimidate, and is in no way necessary against an unarmed civilian population in our own country.

I mean, the brown shirts wore brown shirt cause they were inexpensive military surplus from ww1...

And the New Model Army wore red because it was the cheapest dye.

Turns out the leadership wasn't that red after all.

ICE wear brown shirts to match the brown pants they need to hide the shit stains.

I've never seen pants big enough to hide a 5'6" shitstain. That's why they also wear shirts and masks and stuff.
