It is of unclear legality whether a federal agent can arrest a someone for violating state law in Oregon. It is more likely that after the mayor and governor have said they don't want this to continue it is not legal.

What is the requirement in your mind and legally to identify as LEO? The feds in Portland allegedly have the word POLICE on their shirts and that's it. Is that sufficient? Would you follow orders from someone in tacticool gear with the word POLICE on it?
