Becuase it's not authorized by the Constitution
Who stated that it was??
The question was if I supported a federal anti mask law. "Ensuring that protestors or rioters cannot conceal their identities" is not an enumerated federal power granted to Congress by the Constitution... so I don't support such a law.

Something like this belongs squarely within the police power of the States.
Right. And?? If it was a police action...you're good with that?
If it was a state law, yes, provided that such is authorized by the constitution of that particular state.
I freely admit that it's a defensible idea to ban such masks. I just don't support knee jerk legislation that is outside of a legislature's power.
