The question remains: Why doesn't the original author just write a letter or call the police and ask: "Why do police raiding a house wear masks?"

The premise of your question is diversionary and invalid. You are simply trying to obfuscate the real problem involved with the being why do police seem to think they cannot act any better than the bad guys they claim to be trying to take off the streets and for citizens to not be outraged by their heavy handed and overtly thuggish behavior and violate citizens constitional rights against unreasonable search and seizure and an increasingly civil rights violating police state. Just remember this: if left unchecked today they came for me, tommorrow they come for you.

No. I agree it's a problem. I too don't see why they'd wear masks except for either they also work undercover and don't want someone taking a photo that could be published, or more likely, so light doesn't refelct off exposed skin and make them an easier target to the bad guys.

But that doesn't mean he cannot ask the question.
