Many states do have laws against masking oneself thanks to the KKK. They do allow for Holloween and Mardi Gras, though.

California had very restrictive anti-mask laws until the Iranian revolution in '79 when protesters explained that they were only hiding their identities to protect themselves from retaliation. Berkley even has a no mask policy for non-students but they don't bother to check.
