In Western society, only criminals cover their faces in public. Even people who wear sunglasses will tilt the glass down their nose so you can see their eyes whilst they are talking to you. Unless, of course, you want to deliberately offend someone - which I did actually do once because he came up to me and started bitching about how I was cross with his kids for hitting the intercom at a train station and running away.
Because you're an anti-social jerk? That's how that sounds. There's legal obligation and there's social obligation. You most certainly ARE socially obligated to show your face in public in the West.I am not obligated to show anything to anybody outside of the law enforcement.
Now, granted, whether the US is actually part of Western society or the Anglo-sphere is something the rest of us do wonder about on occasion.
From this response I might presume you think that it's ok for the US to devolve into a Mad Max-like society.People here give as good as they get. There are lots of cops getting shot as well.
Yup.
