The act of wearing a hoodie in public could soon be illegal in Oklahoma under a bill proposed by Don Barrington, a Republican state senator.

The bill, an amendment to existing law, would make it illegal for people to “intentionally conceal” their identities “in a public place by means of a robe, mask, or other disguise,” reports Oklahoma City NBC affiliate KFOR-TV.

Violators of the existing law (and the proposed amendment) face misdemeanor charges. If found guilty, they face fines of up to $500 and up to a year in prison.

And like so what OP?

Considering Trayvon was killed for one, I'd say this is the first good thing Repubs have done with racial profiling since.

(Because you are implying it is racial...aren't you?)

I'll be so glad when white people are no longer the majority in this country...

Then you folks can get a real lecture from we the people about your "small government" hypocrisy.

How is it racial? I'm white/asian and hoodies is all I wear if it's chilly.

At least you won't be here to see it, and you're a racist fucking moron. Kill yourself.

P.S. this belongs in the political forum, not the GB......fucktard.

This is why I can't take the Republican party seriously. They are supposedly the party of civil liberties and God forbid you have any kind of legislation regulating handguns because that would be fascism. But it's okay to tell people that they cannot wear a hooded sweatshirt out in public. Hypocrites.

Barrington, the legislator who proposed the amendment, disagrees.

“The intent of Senate Bill 13 is to make businesses and public places safer by ensuring that people cannot conceal their identities for the purpose of crime or harassment,” he told the NBC station.

Yet,

...the immediately preceding paragraph in the existing law, titled 21 OS 1301, makes it illegal for anyone “to wear a mask, hood or covering, which conceals the identity of the wearer during the commission of a crime” or for “coercion, intimidation or harassment.

Barrington is an idiot.
