Ohio: Attorney General Says He’s Going to Use Ancient Anti-KKK Face-Covering Law to Ruin Students’ Lives with Felony Charges, by Andrew Anglin

This sure seems very extreme.


The reason students are hiding their identities in the first place is that the Jews are using facial recognition software and making blacklists, telling students they will never be able to get a job in any Jewish-controlled industry (which is effectively all industries in America).


AP:



Ohio’s top lawyer has advised the state’s public universities that a law written to deter Ku Klux Klan demonstrations could be used to impose felony charges on students who wear face coverings while protesting the war in Gaza.


In a letter sent Monday, after weeks of pro-Palestinian campus protests around the country, Republican Attorney General Dave Yost advised the presidents of Ohio’s 34 public, four-year universities — which his office represents — to forewarn students about the 1953 law.


In our society, there are few more significant career-wreckers than a felony charge,” the letter said. “I write to you today to inform your student bodies of an Ohio law that, in the context of some behavior during the recent pro-Palestinian protests, could have that effect.”


Haha.


Threatening to ruin people’s entire lives for questioning Jewish domination.

It’s a bold move, Dave.


Let’s see if it pays off.



The law is contained in a single sentence: “No person shall unite with two or more others to commit a misdemeanor while wearing white caps, masks, or other disguise.” Violating this “anti-disguise” law is punishable by a fourth-degree felony charge, up to $5,000 in fines and five years on community control, Yost wrote.


Protesters around the U.S. and the world have increasingly taken steps to remain anonymous by wearing a combination of head and face coverings, in a world where facial-recognition software can easily lead to negative repercussions. Not all do so to hide their identities, however. Some wear religious hijabs or medical masks used to prevent exposure to COVID-19, or as a political statement on the virus’ ongoing impacts.


This really complicates the law, if we’re taking things at face value. America’s diversity protections are very extreme, and if any woman in a hijab was charged for wearing it, that could result in a legal crisis for the state.


Of course, this crisis, if it were to occur, would happen far in the future. The American court system is nothing if not slow.


(Covid masks are probably also protected somehow by university policy.)



Yost, a fourth-term state official who is considering a run for governor in 2026, wrote that students should protest “within the bounds of the law,” not commit crimes, not use the First Amendment as “a sword against fellow students,” and “own their advocacy and avoid wearing masks.”




Among Ohio’s 34 public universities are Kent State, whose name is synonymous with clashes between Vietnam War protesters and National Guard members that left four dead in 1970, and Ohio State — a site of several protests in recent weeks where dozens have been arrested, most for criminal trespass.


Ohio State spokesperson Ben Johnson said the university had received Yost’s letter and was reviewing it. In a March 6 letter, Yost had told President Ted Carter that Ohio law prevents the university from divesting its interests in Israeli assets, one of the calls of protesters.


Wow. Israel is very important to this Yost fellow.


He must really remember the Holocaust hard.


This guy is like the Eddie Van Halen of Holocaust remembrance. He is shredding that memory of the six trillion who were forced to take off their shoes so that diabolical Germans could throw them into a pile.
