Actress Anne-Marie Johnson went incognito Monday to install a series of signs near her Los Angeles home that took aim at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
Signs erected by the 65-year-old actress - who starred in the What's Happening!! spinoff What's Happening Now!! and several sitcoms in the 90s - called for the agency to be fully abolished.
Emblazoned slogans included 'F*** ICE' and 'Resist Fascism.'
One compared federal agents to Adolf Hitler's 'Gestapo.'
Johnson was clad in a navy blue hoodie with a matching cap and sunglasses for the occasion, eyewitnesses said.
The actress used a drill and hedge of clippers to get the procession up herself. She was seen speaking with a neighbor about the signage shortly thereafter, eyewitnesses said.
Johnson starred as Alycia Barnett for a season of Melrose Place in 1995 and as Congresswoman Bobbi Latham on JAG from 1997 until 2002.
She also held a major role in the sitcom Heat of the Night - a successful TV sequel to the Sydney Portier-led film that wrapped in 1995.

The Daily Mail has reached out to Johnson's reps for comment.
The actress has also appeared in Girlfriends, Tyler Perry's House of Pain, That's So Raven, Murder, Dharma $ Greg, CSI, NCIS, and Grey's Anatomy.
Johnson reprised her role of Donna Cabonna for a single episode of the That's So Raven spinoff, Raven's Home, that aired in 2022.
She was pictured again in front of the $2million Silver Lake home on Tuesday - this time in a maroon coat over a grey top and blue pants.
The earlier display came against the backdrop of anti-ICE discourse fueled by two fatal shootings in Minnesota - the killing of Alex Pretti on January 24 and the fatal shooting of Renee Good on January 7.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said all ICE and DHS officers will now be required to wear body-worn cameras after making claims about the January 24 shooting later disproven by bystander footage.
One of the signs the actress posted compared current conditions to those that led to World War II, reading '1933 Gestapo RESIST 2025 ICE'

Among the names assigned to operations include Maine's Operation Catch of the Day; Florida's Operation Dirtbag and Louisiana's Operation Catahoula Crunch/Swamp Sweep.
California Congressman Jimmy Gomez told the AP he felt the idea behind the names were to convey a message that immigrants are 'sub-human.'
Gomez, a Democrat from California, said 'that is why they have those disgusting names.
Gomez said that authorities 'don't even use that kind of language when they conduct operations across the globe dealing with some of the worst terrorists imaginable.'
Texas Republican Congressman Brandon Gill said that Trump continues to keep his pledge to stifle illegal immigration.
'I think all he's doing is letting them know we continue to be serious about that,' Gill said. 'We're serious about keeping the border secure. We're serious about deporting illegal aliens.'
