This summer, and in previous years, law enforcement did in fact follow up later using videos and such to try to track people down. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-02/not-so-fast-lapd-other-agencies-collect-unrest-footage-as-evidence-for-future-arrests https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-02/not-so-f... One easy-to-find story discussing both this year and past situations in other cities. And it notes that many looters were wearing masks - because they knew they could face consequences.

Let's compare THAT police action with the police response to yesterday.
THAT'S America.
