It sounds almost comical, an exhibitionist dressed only in a Zorro mask and white sneakers following women around the streets of Doylestown. It is not only the talk of the town, but it has become big business. At Finney's, t-Shirts are being sold for $10 a piece and they can hardly keep them in stock.
It has been happening for months, but over the holiday weekend, it happened for the first time to three juveniles near the corner of Clinton and Hart.
Many people in Doylestown feel the latest incident is no laughing matter.
“If he's bearing himself to children than that's another story and not so funny,” said Doylestown resident Ali Hoffman.
Police are looking for any information to identify the man behind the mask.

The people of Doylestown are, to borrow from Flannery O'Connor, moral morons. Sure, it's kinda funny that a guy is walking around naked in a mask, but to think he's not a threat and treat it primarily as a joke? That's idiocy.
Like most, the folks in Doylestown don't have a fundamental understanding of the "S" word. They don't realize that sin proliferates, that a person capable of one type of sin is more likely to be capable of another. Too many want to think that one type of sin doesn't point to a proclivity to commit another, like the person who thinks infidelity to a spouse has no bearing whatsoever on his/her ability to be a good parent to their children.
