let's see. if we make it illegal to wear a mask while you commit other crimes, then in the event of a masked riot, you STILL have to prove the arson, theft, vandalism, assault, etc. in order to levy the add-on charge of wearing a mask. And with them masked, how do you prove who committed a crime? So you're still where you were before. Not logical.

This seems to me exactly like stupid liberal laws such as banning AR's that have a forward (vertical) pistol grip, or (insert accessory of your choice here).
I'm not a fan of outlawing objects that are merely an adjunct to OTHER bad BEHAVIOUR. We just got rid of some stupid knife laws in Texas, but now we're going to add some stupid textile laws on a national scale? Of course it's easier to arrest/convict somebody for wearing a mask than it is for loitering, vandalism, arson, blocking traffic, marching without a permit, assault, etc. Proving illegal behaviour is more work than proving possession of a facecloth. So I guess my Harley riding neighbor, my yardman, and my surgeon, to name just a few, will all run the risk of 'taking the ride' if somebody complains about them........
