Burka exclusion?

I’m wearing my hoodie right now.

>>Now, a proposal for an amendment to that law, could make it illegal to hide your identity in public.

Really?? Is this what it comes down to now. I can’t stand hood rats, but this is BS. Are we going to have to start wearing IDs on a freakin’ lanyard next? Then, the implanted RFID chip?

Clearly we’ll never be safe till the government can track our every movement.

Typical. Instead of dealing with the problem directly let’s pass more laws that are intrusive, unconstitutional and impact the innocent more than offenders.

Like gun control. Like making being carded in order to buy spray paint.

Don’t want graffiti? 15 strokes with a cane for the first offense. Cut off a hand the second offense. Problem solved with out nanny laws and nanny taxes and stupid pols thinking they have done something useful.

So am I. I wear it in the house, it's for warmth, not for some political statement. It's Michigan and damp and I don't want to catch a chill.

My dad used to wear one all the time under his overalls. Who thinks of this stuff?

But, is that enough? Perhaps we would be safer if we all just moved into camps...where we could be more concentrated. They could build places to work right next door so we could be useful and productive without so much random travel.

Decent Mathematician...

Wow we have had our gray hoodie since the early 1970s. Still in great shape. Has a pouch in front for my hands. I guess I won’t go to Oklahoma anymore!

[buffyt]

That is a HOOD in a hoodie! LOL

[Brandonmark]

A hood in the hood with a hoodie?

And it would make you free, too...

I wear hoodies all the time, but never with the hood up, for the following reasons:

1. On Parris Island, we had ponchos to wear in rainy weather, but were never allowed to wear the hood. Reasons unknown.

2. Wearing the hood obscures one's peripheral vision, and hearing, to an extent.

That’s ra-a-cis......

Officer Friendly sez: I am the police, and I'm here to arrest you. You've broken the law. I did not write the law. I may even disagree with the law but I will enforce it. No matter how you plead, cajole, beg or attempt to stir my sympathies, nothing you do will stop me from placing you in a steel cage with gray bars. If you run away I will chase you......

Sorry, peasant - hoodies are agin The Law.

Now, if you were Jon Corzine stealing a billion or two, or using an official government vehicle with an official government driver to go 30 mph above the speed limit, well - THAT'S a different story...

BE Jon Corzine, peasant. :)

Oklahoma is an odd state. We vote Conservative more than any other state. But:

1. You can buy 3.2 beer in a grocery, but no wine, alcohol or regular beer

2. A wine and liquor store cannot sell cold beer, or anything that doesn't contain alcohol - no bottle openers, tonic water, or snacks.

3. Until a few years ago, tattoo shops were illegal

4. You may only own one liquor store
