I think I recall reading that some people were held and then let go. Kind of anticlimactic, but I think it was also grounds for lawsuits in some cases.

Tucked inside the National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 6395), which just became law, is a new requirement for federal military and civilian law enforcement personnel involved in the federal government’s response to a “civil disturbance” to wear visible identification of themselves and the name of the government entity employing them.
