Media's claim that they are "unidentified" is simply false.
Since you seem to be here to reflexively argue, the only thing I have left to say is that you need to realize that the federal government deploying soldiers into American cities against the express wishes of the local governments is utterly anti-Freedom, anti-American, and straight up totalitarian. We're witnessing the destruction of our country, and you're cheerleading to the tune of Party propaganda. It's never too late to snap out of that filter bubble and come to your senses.
