LSPD - Public Service Announcment

[Jbacon]

 

 

 

For the continued safety and improvement of the citizens of Los Santos. The state of San Andreas is introducing two new items to the penal code:

 

First introduction is in regards to people covering their faces within the state; after a exhaustive study, we came to the conclusion people don't need to hide their faces in public spaces of San Andreas. Due to the facts we mentioned before, we are adding a new citation and a new misdemeanor to our Penal Code.

General Citation - 07 - Face Concealment. - $500 Fine.

(a) No person or persons, while wearing any mask, hood, or device whereby any portion of the face is hidden, concealed, or covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, shall:
(1) Enter upon, be, or appear upon any lane, walk, alley, street, road highway, or another public way in the State of San Andreas
(2) Enter upon, be, or appear upon or within the public property of the State of San Andreas; or
(3) Hold any manner of meeting or demonstration.

(b) The provisions of subsection (a) of this section are only a general citation if not committed in relation to a crime, whereas then it shall apply to GM#20.

(c) The provisions of subsection (a) do not apply if the concealment is done during masquerades and other entertainment events that are deemed appropriate by the city (such as Halloween), or where there's reasonable cause e.g. motorcycle protection or medical reasons.

(d) Should you continuously be written up for a GC - 07 - Face Concealment, you will be liable for prosecution for failure to comply. This would result in the GC - 07 escalating to a GM - 20.

 

General Misdemeanor - 20 - Face Concealment - 10 Days Jail (( 10 minutes ))
(a) No person or persons, while wearing any mask, hood, or device whereby any portion of the face is hidden, concealed, or covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, shall:
(1) With the intent to intimidate, threaten, abuse, or harass any other person;
(2) With the intent to cause another person to fear for his or her personal safety, or, where it is probable that reasonable persons will be put in fear for their personal safety by the defendant’s actions, with reckless disregard for that probability; or
(3) While engaged in conduct prohibited by law, with the intent of avoiding identification.

Any person or persons violating GC - 07 - Face Concealment while committing a crime, or conceals their face while committing a crime will be held to the misdemeanor criminal charge of Face Concealment.
 

Second introduction is a felony regarding the escape from penitentiaries or jails. Inmates trying to jail break can be charged from now with a general felony:

General Felony - 22 - Prison Break - 60 Months Jail (( 60 minutes ))
Every individual arrested and booked for, charged with, or convicted of a misdemeanor or felony criminal charge who is confined in any county or city jail, prison, who attempts to break in or out, is guilty of GF - 22 - Prison Break. 

Every person or persons who attempt to or successfully breaks into any form of containment facilities, such as county jail, city jail or prison, is guilty of GF - 22 - Prison Break.

If subsection (a)-(b) is committed with any type of force, the person or persons will be guilty of aggravated Prison Break, and any subsequent criminal charges.

Penal Code Update - July 16, 2019
"TO PROTECT AND SERVE"

 

Members of the public,

Whilst I understand and appreciate your need to practice religion, these laws were put in place to protect you and the other citizens of the State of San Andreas. The above mentioned law pertaining to face coverings, does not prohibit the use of traditional Muslim religious attire such as head dress. After review of some of the traditional male traditional headwear, this will not be against the GC-07. Please see figure 1.1

Female head dresses permitted in the state of San Andreas, are the Hijab as well as the Khimar. Should a person choose to wear one of the other traditional types of head dress that cover the majority of the face they can be cited for violation of GC - 07. See figure 1.2

Figure 1.1

Thank you for your understanding as we try and make the state a safer place for all members of the community, regardless of race or religion.

Masked riots will follow closely behind.  Maybe switch it to only in ncz but no way this will fly for very long the way it is currently planned. Good luck.

Already happened

It's not even primarily a matter of free exercise, it's a matter of free expression, and free association.  Similar anti-mask laws have already been ruled unconstitutional by the SCOTUS, as they violate the First Amendment on those grounds.  All it takes is one good lawsuit against the state and you'll be paying out on piggy-back civil suits for years!  Mark my words this mask law is illegitimate and cannot be allowed to stand!  This update does nothing to bring the law into compliance with the First Amendment.
 

The People must resist this violation of our constitutionally-guaranteed rights!
