Kids growing up seeing this and they start doing the same, acting like criminals and later on they start doing illegal things. You can see peoples with balaclavas everywhere on the steeet, in the park, in the shops, they keep in fear everyone. We want the Government to ban and prosecute those wearing balaclavas or any face covering.
