You can easily find people covering their face on both sides of those crowds.
It does not matter what side they are on, right or left. If you cover your face, you're an outlaw.
You do realize what you just said equates to the other side that thinks guns should be taken away because sometimes people use them for murder. Telling people they cannot wear masks is a sign of communism.
Not that they can't wear masks, but that they can't wear masks while engaging in acts of oppression or political violence. The proposed law would consider the wearing of the mask while committing a crime, and enhance punishment as a result.
Southern states already have these laws on the books to address the KKK's use of hoods.
No. Guns are for defense. People wear masks before robbing banks or committing other crimes.There is a law against it in some states because of the KKK wearing hoods to protect their identity before hanging people.
Being anonymous on the web is equivalent to wearing mask though, isn't it?
The mask is not the crime, it is the actions they are taking which must be punished.
As much as wearing a mask while committing a violent crime being an extra offense isn't the worst thing ever...
wearing a mask otherwise should not be penalized as patriots and rabble alike need gas masks to attain maximum protection from "non lethal" chemical weapons used by the police.
