They also used Federal Troops along with FBI agents to raid his home with flashbangs and arrest him

Is that why he's wearing army boots and pants? Presumably he was arrested in his underwear?

That isn't army camouflage, that is USMC camouflage (MARPAT). I don't know why he is wearing it, maybe just for fashion.

Might be his uniform if he is a veteran.

~~Parent~~You said federal troops, and I guess those would be marines as those are the ones that were deployed to California. Also ridiculous overkill for an unarmed guy who's only crime is handing out stuff to protestors.

The media I saw on it said Federalized National Guard. National Guard when Federalized are Federal troops under Title 10.

Absolutely this is ridiculous overkill and a flagrantly illegal overeach.
