Taking a cue from a graphic novel and the subsequent movie, is there any law in the United States preventing common citizens from dressing in a ball cap, face covering, cap, and sunglasses when traveling in public? Add a vest, and I’d say you’ve nailed that fashion trend?

      Is it illegal for ICE to wear them? What about people experiencing medical symptoms or people with immunodeficiencies? Or was it aimed at protesters trying to protect their identity?

      I don’t like that ICE or people pretending to be them wear masks, but this seems like a dangerous precedent.

          I ride motorcycles, so this already was my plan for attending protests. They have back, shoulder, elbow, knee and hip pads built in, plus you can add chest pads to many of these jackets. Range of motion is a bit restricted, but that’s a small price to pay for protection from a beating

      North Carolina recently reenacted a law banning face coverings. It was originally meant to restrict Klan activity.
