Thread: Miami Company Creates Gringo Mask

The illegal alien mask was green if I recall correctly so it was not geared at any specific race. They assumed that it was against Hispanics and forgot that there are illegal aliens from all countries around the world and consist of all races. This mask not only targets one race and what is frightening is that it almost looks like Hitler's masterrace as they are all very fair skinned and blond. Maybe that should be brought up and the out rage would increase. There are no brunettes or redheads in the office picture that was with the article.

If they sell them on ebay like they sold the alien costumes then we too should complain. I might get a hold of the Anti Defemation League and see what they say as the masks remind me of WWII Germany and Hitler's master race. It isn't even fair representation of white people as there are no red heads or brunettes for that matter. We need to fight back. Why should we be allowed to be discriminated against.

The illegal alien mask came with a green-card.

Do these mask come with citizenship papers?

Gringo Mask - Yeah, This Should Work
Gringomask.com appears to be a real, not spoof, website in protest against the Arizona immigration bill.

The site proposes that as a protest people wear a mask featuring a blond-haired white person's face (image right). According to the website:

The objective of this action is to dignify and support the Hispanic community, with the firm intention of taking it to the streets and confronting Arizona’s statute SB 1070. Proud of where we come from, and what we do and are for this country.

These people need lawyers, not masks.

Because wearing a mask in public is illegal in many states, so the wearing of the Gringo Mask in and of itself would be grounds to be stopped by the police (and a resulting identity check?).

In many states, these laws grew out of the desire to have a legal basis to prohibit the wearing of hoods at Ku Klux Klan rallies. In New York, interestingly, the law "can be traced back in substance to legislation enacted in 1845 to thwart armed insurrections by Hudson Valley tenant farmers who used disguises to attack law enforcement officers." (Citation, at 10)

New York Penal Law § 240.35(4), which has been upheld by the federal Court of Appeals (in a decision in which now Justice Sotomayor participated) makes it an offense of "loitering" for a person to be masked in public:

Being masked or in any manner disguised by unusual or unnatural attire or facial alteration, loiters, remains or congregates in a public place with other persons so masked or disguised, or knowingly permits or aids persons so masked or disguised to congregate in a public place; except that such conduct is not unlawful when it occurs in connection with a masquerade party or like entertainment if, when such entertainment is held in a city which has promulgated regulations in connection with such affairs, permission is first obtained from the police or other appropriate authorities.

Here is a list (a/o 2005) of states which criminalize the wearing of masks (Arizona is not on the list, having repealed its anti-mask law in 197.

I wonder, though, whether in states like Arizona where it is not illegal to wear a mask, the wearing of a mask combined with other factors, e.g. walking into a bank, could provide grounds at least to question someone.

So while "driving while brown" or "looking Hispanic" or any of the other alleged grounds for racial profiling remain illegal as a basis for stopping and questioning someone, wearing the Gringo Mask could be a lawful ground in many states for a police officer to question someone.
The Gringo Mask, another bad idea gone bad.

The mask wasn't green, it came with a green card. The mask was actually a "Space Alien".

As a Californian I think I will have to wear a Grizzly Bear Mask.

Why a grizzly bear? Time for another Bear Flag Revolt. Historians say the choice of the grizzly was made to enrage and intimidate the Californios (Californians of Latin Descent), who feared the grizzly more than any other predator.
Others accounts say the mountain men favored the grizzley because it was the fiercest and most determined fighter in the animal kingdom. Whatever the reasons behind its choosing, the grizzly quickly became the symbol of the new Republic -- also known, then, as the Bear Flag Republic. The grizzly remains the symbol of California to this day.
