I read this story elsewhere, and what was not mentioned was why the charges were thrown out - it is only illegal to wear a mask there when it is in the commission of another crime. Just wandering around town wearing a full face mask is NOT illegal there. :D
And awesome pun at the end, by the way.

Yes, it is illegal there. It goes back to anti-KKK efforts. Doesn't apply here? Maybe not; the judge threw it out. But the cops charged him with the crime because it was on the books. -rc

Hmm. There's more of his face exposed than when I wear my law required Shoei full face helmet with a smoked visor. I often walk inside of gas stations to pay for gas with it on to make a point. What if a DOT/Snell foundation approved helmet that looked like a Batman mask were sold? I think this is why the case was dismissed.
