Did you know that it is a felony to wear a dust mask in public in Va without an affidavit from your Doctor. (Some exceptions)

Seems like as long as you are doing something that could be reasonably seen as "dusty" (like yard work, or cleaning), exception (ii) would apply:
(ii) engaged in professions, trades, employment or other activities and wearing protective masks which are deemed necessary for the physical safety of the wearer or other persons;
Now last Halloween we had a kid (well over 16) show up at our youth group wearing one of those full-head monster masks, and he had some fun with it, but later on when I pulled him aside and mentioned that he was technically committing a felony, and that he probably didn't want to wear it outside of our little group, you should have seen his eyes get big! :shock:

(iv) wearing a mask, hood or other device for bona fide medical reasons upon the advice of a licensed physician or osteopath and carrying on his person an affidavit from the physician or osteopath specifying the medical necessity for wearing the device and the date on which the wearing of the device will no longer be necessary and providing a brief description of the device.
How about just walking or trying not to catch flu.
A doctors prescription isn't enough. It has to be an Affidavit.
I had to remind one of the staff at the General Assembly last week, that the anti flu mask was illegal.
Bow hunting...maybe they should exempt CHP holders:lol:
There isn't an exception to the police either. All the cops that wear Blaclava's during raids are in violation.
Bad law just to feel good about keeping the Klan in check, which is where it started.
Anyway...The point was that unless you're in a coma, it's impossible to go a month without committing a felony.
