This topic is about people covering their faces to vote. I don't agree with that at all. You should be able to identify yourself when you vote, the same way that to get your citizenship you first have to remove any face covering in front of a judge to prove who you are. You want to wear a bag over your had during the ceremonial part, feel free.
You DO have to identify yourself to vote. And this whole bloody mask/costume thing is just a reaction to the bullshit over a couple Muslims, no sweat off anyone's back at all.
Would you go vote topless or with your dick hanging out?Of course not!
Would you deny a Hutterite a vote because she's got a kerchief and a dress from the 1890s? Of course not.
Then your just fucking arguing over someone else's sense of modesty.
Not a threat to our national identity or any infringement to YOUR rights whatsoever!
Yeah we have certain traditions here, but they're not obligations and if the Court rules so, they can't be laws and that's that. That's why you can toss someone out of the Legion for wearing a dirty baseball cap but you can't toss them out for wearing a yarmulke or a turban. The law says it's part of their identity, not a fashion accessory.
You're absolutely free not to like it, to say you don't like it, and to post that you wish it would change. WITHOUT the 'enemy' & racist bullshit. The Hate Crime law refers to 'promoting hatred against an identifiable group' and
we shouldn't have to have a law like that, you should be civilized enough to know better and not even think of doing it. But oviously
some people aren't
