I'm actually surprised that ski masks haven't been outright outlawed. Everyone KNOWS that only criminals wear those things to keep from being identified....  |
The government is I believe attempting to control guns, I believe for their purposes and not for the welfare of the general public but it is not getting very far.
I have to say that the skull ski mask I saw on a motorcyclist a few weeks gave me a bit of a start, I guess it was unexpected. But I was thinking more in terms of an electronic blur to avoid surveillance. A force field, as the Trekkies might say.
