Charged with wearing a clown mask on a public road, an 18-year-old Tampa man was jailed Tuesday afternoon.
Deputies say Matthew David Lopez, of 7003 Ponderosa Drive, was seen with two other people walking south on N 58th Street, just north of E Fowler Avenue. What caught a deputy's attention was Lopez's masked face with a bright red-and-orange wig, according to an arrest affidavit. ...

Lopez was taken to the Hillsborough County Jail on charges of wearing a mask or hood on a public road after the age of 16 years old and resisting arrest without violence.
That's a law in Florida? :wtf2:

It's a way to keep the lefty protesters that like violence and anonymity when they protest.

Little used because as we know from many a Lounge thread people in Florida prefer to go nekkid.

I would assume we don't have similar laws in the midwest. I could have been arrested hundreds of times for wearing my hood & ski-mask while shoveling or running the snow-blower.

There are quite a few states with such laws, the original reason for enacting them usually goes back to either fighting banditry or the Klan.

IIRC that law was passed when I was in elementary school. I remember us discussing a law prohibiting the wearing of masks because of the Klueless Klucks Klan.

Wow, I never would have thought of that. Funny how those crazy laws originate.

MSB, I think that the law about wearing a mask or covering one's face in public goes back a lot further than you or I are old. Many states that have that law do except Hallowe'en.

At least he wasn't painted up as a damn mime. I hate mimes! Jail's too good for them!

Some banks here in Mi. have signs on the no stating that the wearing of hats and sunglasses are prohibited.

or the asshole bandits that prey on convenience stores. I hear that happens a lot in the bigger cities in FL.

Never heard of that. Arresting someone for wearing a mask on a public street (not in a business) seems rather harsh. Just tell the kid the law and let him off with a warning.
