Good for that judge. Nobody likes the KKK, and I think most people consider their use of masks cowardly. But the right to anonymity is part of the right to free speech.
Yeah. And I think that "no masks" thing could well be used against left-wing, anti-war protesters as well ("ooh, they might be terrorists") - hence the protest suggestion.
Count me in. Although I totally despise the KKK, I think they're right on this one. Furthermore, I think we are very close to a society in which other groups, such as anti-war protesters, may choose to engage in masked protest.
