 An Idaho woman attended a local city council meeting sporting an eccentric look that she claimed resembled a burka, voicing her frustration that she had to 'dress like a freaking Muslim' to get out of wearing masks while attending classes on her college campus. 

The woman - who identified herself as Katie Dugger - was among the many irate residents who spoke during Monday's city council meeting in Lewiston, Idaho, voicing their frustration with mask policies enforced because of COVID-19. 

Approaching the podium in a bright multi-colored poncho and floor length skirt along with a loud purple scarf, Katie went into a impassioned speech about how her life had been impacted since having to wear a mask. 

'I took last semester off at LCSC (Lewis-Clark State College) because of all this nonsense because I can not wear a mask, it doesn't matter why but it is very traumatizing for me to put on a mask, because of something that happened to me when I was a kid,' she claimed at the podium.

Dugger then turned to her 'beautiful outfit,' which she clarified came from Peru.  

She continued: 'I'm wearing this because the only way I could go to school today was because I had to act like I had on a freaking burka and go like this so I could go to school and cover my face like I am a Muslim because I can breathe through this at least. 

'This is thin enough that I can breathe through it... so the way for me to go to school and get my education is I have to dress like a freaking Muslim.'

The woman soon became overcome with emotion, describing the current situation as 'terrible.' 

'I'm wearing this because the only way I could go to school today was because I had to act like I had on a freaking burka and go like this so I could go to school and cover my face like I am a Muslim because I can breathe through this at least,' she said at the meeting

'I want to go to school, I want to make this a better place,' she sobbed. 'I want to get my degree.

'Do you think these kids, in these schools can focus on their work when they are getting rashes, they are getting infections. 

The irate anti-masker then went on to mention someone she knew at the college that she claimed suffered an infection after she was forced to wear a mask following work she had done on her mouth. 

Dugger said that she was going to conduct a poll on her campus to determine if students actually wanted to wear masks before sharing with the council that she and others were working with an attorney on a class action lawsuit. 

She soon started crying again, explaining that she had to shut down her business of eight years because of the pandemic. 

Katie then voiced her frustration with taxpayers dollars going to 'plastic partitions and signs,' which she described as a 'load of bulls**t.'  

'If they want to get a vaccine, let them get a vaccine and get Bell's palsy and fall over dead two weeks later,' Dugger declared

'You think the virus is smart enough to say "oh my god she has on a burka, I think I'll stop right here and not infect her or anybody else."'
