      No, the KKK hood is not the same as a mask for health purposes. It is a symbol of racial hate, violence and white supremacy.
      The discussion was about should he be arrested. If you are not talking about the laws, then you are off in some other discussion all by yourself.

        I do not believe you can narrow the discussion to this without avoiding the nature of the KKK hood, which you apparently choose to dodge,

        Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man;
        But will they come when you do call for them? Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part 1, Act III:

            Nobody is arguing that the KKK hood isn't racist, Shuny. They are arguing whether the police could have arrested him for wearing it. The guy who wore it even said it was a stupid joke.

                Yeah!
                The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                  No, of course not. I fully realize the history of hate and violence related to the KKK in history, which Sparky, and you chose to ignore.

                    Seer and you are apparently arguing that. The KKK as the hood represents is not a stupid joke.

                      Bonehead, what I am arguing is that wearing the hood is not illegal and the police have no say in the matter.

                            I consider it a moral and ethical case and not a legal one.

                              Would your position differ if he also happened to be armed with fake weapons?

                                Your posts have nothing to do with the topic of the thread. If you want to discuss the ethical/moral aspects of the issue you should create your own thread.
