[MR] Illegal To Hold Meetings In Costume!

[Donald Wagner]

Oh Yeah!!  Well,

HUMOR ON
....when I was a kid, we had to wear our hoods to school....both ways. 
 And we didn't have nice natural fabric to wear..Oh no...we had to wear 
polyester 'cawz "the blood washes out easier"...geeez.  These days, 
everybody makes due with pilfered 200 thread percale sportin' stains and 
such, but back in the day no self respecting klansmen, or his kkkin, 
would be seen wearin' cotton(people might think we were Catholic or 
maybe even Amish).  It just wasn't progressive enough for a "Saturday 
Night meetin' and bonfire on the grounds", you know.
HUMOR OFF

I suppose if we were trying to hide ourselves at demos, it would be a 
problem.  Instead, we spend the greater part of the demo showing our 
smiles and faces, convincing the kid's parent's we have a job we go to 
on Monday and aren't street musicians gone wild.  Go figure, huh?
