Who is banning masks?!?
Nassau County in NY state passed a law this summer https://www.nyclu.org/press-release/nassau-county-mask-ban-signed-into-law YES, there are exceptions for health, religious or cultural reasons BUT they've also used it as probable cause to search someone https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/nassau-county-police-issue-first-face-mask-ban-violation/5741363/ (it doesn't matter that he was found with a knife. My son wears a mask because he thinks his nose is ugly)
Fuckin' shit-ass Nassau, of course they did.
I know someone who wears one because a lifetime of depression caused them not to take care of their teeth, and so they don't want to be judged even more poorly for that.
I haven't seen his nose, but I bet it's bold and beautiful. I wish him luck on his mental health journey!
In the UK we have the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 section 60aa where the police are able to make anyone within an area remove a mask when a there is a large crowd and a senior cop decides to fill in the paperaorj. There has been a recent increase in its usage in the last 4-ish years.
Wrong. There's the governor of NY and also NC. https://apnews.com/article/masks-ban-north-carolina-campus-protests-128a6aa32a4c832faa83befb2e7dd77e
I mean, there were pushes to ban masks by republicans during the pandemic. And whenever the plebs get unruly and start protesting, local politicians start talking about banning masks so protestors (or anyone even near the protest) can be arrested even if they’re peaceful.
