Not sure why you ‘feel’ that you have the right to tell me what to wear. You want to remove the comfort of over 90% of the population because you’re scared of several percent?

Thats Orwell level insanity. And IF you are going to restrict things based on feelings, because lets face it, geriatrics in hoodies arent jacking cars, then the Hajib/burka should be first to go. they offend almost all non muslims. And they are a symbol of slavery and oppression.

Did you not get that this was the Oklahoma legislature? I am not them. I’ve just pointed out that there is precedence for this, with at least an even chance that a hoodie prohibition could withstand court scrutiny. But not if combined with a very different law about hijabs, which would be a lot tougher to get through the courts.

Anti-KKK mask laws have been around since the 1920s, and still exist in I believe about 15 states. And as recently as 2004, such a law was upheld by the US Supreme Court.

This does not reflect any opinion from me whether it is a good law or not.
