We don't need people to be faceless. From the genocides in Rwanda or Burma or may other places, from Saddam Hussein gassing his own to Stalin.... the British, the Roman's, the good old USA. None had or needed masks to behave the way they did.

It's the very nature of our spices. No one race or country can claim otherwise. Those that due only add fuel to the fire.

I dont belive masks will change how those with power act. I believe masks are a weak and ultimately useless symbol of an attempt to try and control and uncontrollable situation.
