WHEELING, W.Va. - A man is in trouble with the law for wearing a Grinch mask in public.

Norman Gray, who was stopped by police on Tuesday, was told to take the mask off and not put it on again.

Police say Gray took the mask off and asked why he couldn't wear it. After officers told him that wearing masks in public is illegal, he reportedly put the mask back on and said he didn't believe it.

Gray was then arrested and the mask confiscated.

2. "This is West Virginia.. We don't have no anti-mask laws here."

It might be good for WVA to outlaw idiots.

5. Some areas have a no mask in public law to prevent the klan

from wearing their hoods during protests and such. It forces them to expose who they are...

Years ago my hometown enacted such a law for that exact reason...

if they're gonna march, they're gonna march exposed.

it pretty much eliminated klan marches

course, that might not be the case in WV
