  Sorry, that’s illegal now

  876.12 Wearing mask, hood, or other device on public way.—No person or persons over 16 years of age shall, while wearing any mask, hood, or device whereby any portion of the face is so hidden, concealed, or covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, enter upon, or be or appear upon any lane, walk, alley, street, road, highway, or other public way in this state.

  It’s part of the big campaign to disrupt criminal anarchy, treason, and other crimes against public order

    Illegal for you, I guess. I can wear a mask outside. Good luck down there in the US, guys.
