US Felony Laws Already Prohibit The Wearing Of Islamic Veils by ShinnBet: 4:28pm On Mar 25, 2017 |
In many US states and the District of Columbia, there are anti-mask laws. Anti-mask laws date back to the mid-20th century when states and municipalities passed them as to inhibit the Ku Klux Klan, whose members typically wore hoods of white linen to conceal their identities. In current times, masked political protesters such as those affiliated with the Occupy Movement or Anonymous—a collective group of online hackers with strong political beliefs who consistently wear Guy Fawkes masks—have been targeted with anti-masking laws. I will be citing a felony code enacted by the State of Virginia which bans any form of masking in public: § 18.2-422. Prohibition of wearing of masks in certain places; exceptions. As can be seen from this law, there is no room whatsoever for Muslim women to wear their bukhars! If they insist on going full sharia then they risk being arrested, their hijabs yanked off for a mug shot and thrown in jail.
