Bill would ban protesters from using face masks

Good. If you believe so much in something to protest about have the guts to show your face and not hide.

then again these types would then dress in full hajibs lol that could be a funny protest

just find the ones burning buildings and throwing bricks through windows

Does anyone get the feeling that anyone supporting the police state now is a paid NSA shill?

good..pass the bill ASAP

If Americans don't defend free speech, religious freedom, gun rights, freedom from unconstitutional searches and seizures, the right to silence, and the freedom from torture and extrajudicial assassination, what part of the Bill of Rights do they support?

Well that's a dumb bill. They'll all just wear a hijab and say they're Muslims.

And sue the crap out of the PD for touching them after identifying themselves as Muslim.

See, it will backfire. They should have the freedom to wear masks, they should not have the freedom to be destructive and to harm others. For that people just need to be diligent to weed those kinds out when they see'em.

Anyone who votes for masks can pay the security bill....

Does anyone get the feeling that if that the elites decreed that everyone must have their thumbs amputated, Americans would agree that the law makes sense and must be obeyed?

There is also a similar bill up in WA state for this.
Those masks are creepy during protests - makes you wonder what they are hiding.

Conversely, if protest masks must be removed, then how about removing Muslim face masks also, which are just as creepy? Because it is for a religion?? what a joke

Americans are so fearful, brainwashed, or ignorant that they justify every law and overlook every abuse carried out by the government.

Americans are so fat and drugged up that they eagerly allow themselves to be molested to ride a bus, offer their fingerprints to get a driver license, and open their bags to be searched so they can ride a subway.

If Americans are asked about the US debt, they respond that it doesn't matter because it is not real money and doesn't need to be paid back. Americans think endless wars are fine because US bombs are just gathering dust. Americans support government secrecy because the USA has enemies. Americans think taxes create more jobs than the free market can. Americans think government workers deserve high wages because they work hard. Americans think the economy should be destroyed to save the environment. Americans say people should be in prison to keep the unemployment rate down. Americans would rather increase punishments for victimless nanny state laws instead of repealing them. Americans think the desires of neighbors are more important than the rights of property owners. Americans believe the government owns everything because the government is the people. When asked about gun control, Americans say it's needed for safety. If asked about free speech, Americans respond that no one should be offended. Americans say asset forfeiture is fine because the police have been doing it for years. Americans defend NSA wiretapping because it's just metadata. Americans say TSA groping is good since they have nothing to hide. Americans say torture is okay because other countries do it.

Americans even say the Bill of Rights should be abolished because George Washington owned slaves!

Anyone who still supports the government is just a tool for the elites.

The collapse of the USA is disgusting and shameful.

The US deserves everything coming to it.

Worry about your own part of the world, slope...

OP do you think it is a good idea to have wilding protesters causing damage and injury to other all whir binding the faces so no one can hold them accountable for their ILLEGAL actions......this has zero to do with any form of freedom of speck or the right to protest....it does have to do with not having protest going violent and behaving just bad.


protest all the time for what ever you want to....that is your right....


but anyone showing up to any form of protest hiding their face behind a mask either 1...do not truly believe in what they are doing and so want to hide their identity...or worse....the do so because they show up to cause trouble and will be breaking laws that could get them in trouble.



freedom to protest does not mean freedom to do so undercover.

stand up for what you believe....and stand proud.

if your are not proud enough to show your face...maybe you actually think your cause might not be right.

what is all this to you China?
I did not realize that the Communist Chinese government allowed that stuff for their citizens.

bans dont work.

Destroying property is illegal too, doesn't seem to stop them.

now they can arrest them BEFORE they cause damage of hurt people....possibly getting them selves killed....so it actually might end up helping them.

as long as law enforcement/military/private mercenaries have to abide by the same law.

They want mask gone so they can harass these people after they protest. Just because assholes are currently protesting doesn't mean ALL PROTESTOTRS ARE ASSHOLES. You might have a reason to protest one day. BUT if you are identified and harassed then you might think twice about standing up for your rights.

Not until the Burka is banned!

WTF?

Putting people in prison because they MIGHT damage property is pre-crime.

If the Communist State had its way, they would ban protesting altogether

Free Speech is a thorn in the side of politicians in the US today

They have no need for protesters unless it is to hand them a bag of money like banking lobbyists do

Ban every and all masks out in public during protests, marches, gatherings, etc.

If you truly believe in something, own up to it. I don't care if you're antifa or the KKK. Take your mask off and show the world what you believe in.

Actually, yes, all protesters ARE assholes. That having been said, they are NOT harassed for merely marching and expressing their support or non-support of issues. When they DO get "harassed" is when they break the law, destroy property, burn buildings, beat people up, deface walls, break car windows, etc., ALL OF WHICH IS FUCKING ILLEGAL.

The moral is, don't do anything illegal and you won't NEED to wear a mask. The only ones wearing a mask are planning or already ARE doing something illegal, and need to be taken down. PERMANENTLY.

Protesting with a mask is like the glory hole of democracy.

Something gets done, but neither party is really sure what happened.

If masks at protests are responsible for crime and vandalism,
then pencils are responsible for spelling errors.

:hitler:

Your ability to think outside the current scope of events is underwhelming.

You know people at Ban the Fed rallies (as in federal reserve) were identified for later harassment.

Imagine if Hillary was president? Can you say Arkancide?

You can think of no scenario in which you may want to protest peacefully incognito?
