They're gonna wear them anyway, and state/local police aren't going to confront or arrest them over it.

Sounds like grounds for self defence at that point

How will this relate to the case against California? I'm so sick of the big government party, aka Republicans.

Nah, we need a federal government big enough to finish Reconstruction and break the oppression red state governments are able to force on their own people with voter suppression and gerrymandering bullshit
Also, Bill Clinton famously opposed "big government," and he was a fucking evil bastard who gutted welfare programs, not somebody to emulate

I mostly meant it tongue-in-cheeck. I also don't really consider social safety nets, equality, and fairness to be "big" government personally.

That's a weird take

Generally when people say big government they mean excessive, intrusive, overbearing, controlling. I would rather the focus be on fairness, equality, safety, justice; and to achieve that you do need a "big government" with highly qualified people leveraging science and evidence to drive decision making. But a large government doesn't have to imply violating personal autonomy, privacy, etc. /shrug

Are NY pigs going to enforce it?

If anything, NY pigs can get some extra cash from a new program that rewards regular cops for arresting illegals.
