It’s more about how shitty defense council was. They weren’t even trying

How is this reposted with fewer pixels?
Tafkam96
4 months of reposting has really stolen a lot of pixels from this.

That’s not entirely true. The tea point is that the dynamic has changed to where masks are no longer indicative of criminal behavior.

Got any more pixels?

I think the same thing every time I go into the store.

He was joking...and the other guy is a dickweed...
mightlookthesamebutitdonttastethesame
I thought of that last week, you had to remove your helmet before entering banks now you need to wear masks.
raggamuffin132
Good thing you aren't black. You wouldn't even need the bandana to be convicted.
Gnashes
This has lost entirely too many pixels given how young it is...

This is the perfect time to become a burglar/robber though!! Just sayin....
PepeThunder
In relation to Pé answer, no he didn't. Going masked to a bank before coronavirus was, in few words, unusual. As a retired judge myself 1/2
PepeThunder
Just not of the USA, i would also use the mask as evidence of malicious intent.

Can we get a few more pixels to this repost?

Am I missing something? I figured that was definitely the point he was trying to make

I think some of y’all are reading too far into a joke.

Guys, I'm pretty lucky. Last few grocery stores I've been too 100% mask coverage. IN SOUTH FLORIDA!! I think reality is setting in
Drunksquirrelscantclimb
If he is after justice this should bother him for some time.
BakingMaybes
Convicted people of crimes based on nothing more than wearing a bandanna in a bank? Sorry, I don't believe it

The US justice system literally kills people for walking while black.
BakingMaybes
This tweet is specifically about convictions in court, not extrajudicial killings. I’ll believe the tweet with evidence.
ankokublackfang
Many states have anti-mask laws (all I found having exceptions for public safety, which are in effect now), but it's entirely possible. 1/2
ankokublackfang
For example, New York law makes it illegal to simply wear a mask and hang out. https://codes.findlaw.com/ny/penal-law/pen-sect-240-35.html 2
BakingMaybes
That would make sense, but why mention the bank? It’s like we’re supposed to believe ppl are getting convicted of attempted robbery
PanicAtTheCostco
I think he’s saying he’s convicted people with less hard evidence. Like I’m sure convictions can come from snitches or lack of an alibi too
BakingMaybes
W/ respect, it’s difficult to think of weaker evidence than wearing a mask for any crime other than wearing a mask. An informant is 1/2
BakingMaybes
testimony from a person, and lack of an alibi isn’t enough either. There had to be actual evidence against someone. I’ll buy it when I see’t
PanicAtTheCostco
I feel you. I don’t believe statements like this without thorough research too. Didn’t do any this time tho. But if you know about the US
PanicAtTheCostco
judicial system, people can be convicted with close to no physical hard evidence. All that’s needed is a jury who believes they’re guilty.
NoItsATideUsername
Do I even need to research it or can I just assume they were mostly black people?
Exyr
It was/is illegal to enter a bank with a face covering
THEYARDGOAT
Not at all they were also light black dark brown light brown and not white lmao
Ulthirm
They also talked urban or looked just a bit too much like they got their suit out of savers and a pawn shop (white or not)
THEYARDGOAT
You mean ill fitting
n0twithoutmyanus
You just made a terrifying point about knee-jerk liberal assumptions
THEYARDGOAT
Aka layman terms please sir lmao
THEYARDGOAT
I'm not political at all im just a white kid that grew up in the hood
spiralshark
It's not knee-jerk to assume that his cases would line up with the national rate of black and brown kids behind bars for petty crimes
n0twithoutmyanus
My point stands
shitheadtookmyname
Your point was that liberals use statistical inference techniques?
n0twithoutmyanus
Lol no dude ?
BestUsernameICouldThinkOf
Part of the cultural pushback against masks is that, in the western world, covering your face is usually associated with trying to hide(1)
ravnicrasol
This actually dates to the 19th century! Post-renaissance big hoods/cloaks were fashionable, but started getting bad rep due to murders.
shitheadtookmyname
Lol no. It's bc trumpets are morons.
preparationh67
Lol, you give stupid self centered people too much credit. Assholes lies about having good sounding reasons all the time.
CaptainTycho
Yes but not wearing one is a sign your ajackass who would rather put your selfish preferences over the health and lives of others
foxeybubble
A friend of mine was arrested a bit before the covid situation during a peaceful protest for "carrying weapon" aka wearing a bandana on face
thealchemistdragon
Yes they are part of a cultural prejudice. We should not let prejudice alone make us unsafe or unjust.
mallerzkay
I believe they are referring to criminals wearing masks prior to Covid not a cultural prejudice?
thealchemistdragon
Both? OP is referring to the assumption that only criminals wear masks. But a conviction shouldn’t come from just wearing a mask into a bank
rvail136
The other part is that if you're only wearing an untreated cloth mask, then you're just virtue signalling and not doing anything useful.
krizzizle
Bullshit. Multiple layers of cotton (most masks are at least two layers) is enough to 95% keep you from spreading covid. Cant protect you 1/
rvail136
No actually 2 layers of cloth isn't enough to stop 95% of particles. It's enough to stop 10% and nothing more. But you keep on being you.
krizzizle
From catching it but if everyone wears them nobody spreads it. 2/2
BestUsernameICouldThinkOf
your identity for nefarious purposes. Prior to the pandemic, walking into a bank with your face usually meant you were up to no good.
GQPisadeathcult
Nice theory. Other countries with banks dont struggle with this. It’s simply Americans be clueless, self absorbed, freedom loving idiots.
tinyfootprints
IIRC, NYC actually has a law against wearing a mask in public. It's probably not being rigorously enforced this year.
zzpacksmasher
Prior to the pandemic, it was strictly forbidden and very much enforced that you couldn't even walk into the bank covered face.
mentallychallengeaccepted
Started making trouble in my neighbourhood!
MrRandom314159
Unless you were also wearing spandax.
TheVermonster
Idk, around here you need to enter the vestibule, remove your mask, look at the camera and state your name, then you put the mask back on.
Cattbutt
How long have you been waiting to type that word!?
ifatreefallsintheforest
No it’s fucking not. Nobody has made this comparison in any argument in the last 5 months.

Unless by “part” you mean this post, here and only here.

I don't know how to walk into a bank without my face though :(
Ghlargh
I use my feet most times.

It was weird wearing masks in the beginning. I think that perspective changed since covid. It's almost the opposite now. Seeing the unmasked
Imafishwithlegs
Can 100% confirm this. Saw people wearing masks and gloves and laughed. Now anyone not wearing one is just infuriating to me
lewstherin69
live in ATL, regularly see whole stores of maskless ppl
Eikre
Well the gloves were always a joke. Nobody was practicing any kind of glove discipline. I shoulda taken recordings for posterity.
KawasakiValkyrieN7
Can't confirm that. Where I'm at in the South nobody is wearing masks
dingofdong
Given the current covid19 data, that doesn't surprise me

Can't confirm either. On Vancouver Island, Canada. It's a 50/50 split.
