Has anyone considered that requirements to wear masks, most of which are of questionable benefit at best, might just be so those who are concealing their identities for the purpose of looting and rioting don't stand out for concealing their identities with masks?
Before anyone says that is just paranoid "conspiracy theory", consider the Mayors of several Major Cities have permitted looting and burning of significant portions of those cities, told their respective police forces to 'stand down', and refused Federal aid in quelling the riots. They all are members of the same political Party.
Sometimes a conspiracy theory is just a conspiracy revealed.
