I wonder if I'm more likely to get denied entry wearing juggalo face or classic camo paint

Depends. Are you attending an ICP concert, or a military reenactment convention, or something else entirely?

Shamelessly hijacking this story to recommend The Private Eye digital comic [0]. Set in a future where everyone has normalised the wearing of masks in public to preserve their anonymity. The protagonist refuses to get a driving license because he wouldn't want a photo of himself in a database.
