tbourner Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Am I likely to get arrested or stopped in shops if I wear one? Or will I just get funny looks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kieren1234 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I want one for when working out in the cold!! Not to wear in shops though, may look like you are going to rob them and likely to get arrested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 If someone refused to serve you in a shop, Im sure you could claim some sort of discrimination ....Balaclava'ist maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted January 3, 2008 Author Share Posted January 3, 2008 Well it's only an item of clothing, so it should be OK? Just don't walk too close to the elderly in the street!!! It's mainly for cycling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukeyboy2k Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I reckon you should be OK unless you go to a bank - they might get a bit twitchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 This type: http://www.military-kit.co.uk/images/lightweight_cotton_balaclava_thin.jpg I used to have one of those when I was a wee boy, the IRA were still active then, I got some funny looks but was warm, you can always roll it up into a hat and then deploy the full effect once you walk through the doors of the bank anyway...
