Quote:Children as young as kindergarten-age could face misdemeanor charges for bullying under a proposed law advancing in a Southern California city.

The Carson City Council gave preliminary approval this week to an ordinance that would target anyone from kindergarten to age 25 who makes another person feel "terrorized, frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed or molested" with no legitimate purpose.

At least they wrote the law so there is no ambiguity....

Quote:makes another person feel and with no legitimate purpose

These definitions are clear and leave no room for subjective judgment.

So a 5 year old and a 25 year old are viewed the same under the law.

You hurt my feelings you should go to jail

"The Carson City Council gave preliminary approval this week to an ordinance that would target anyone from kindergarten to age 25 who makes another person feel "terrorized, frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed or molested" with no legitimate purpose."

I wonder who is going to get to define what is to be considered a "legitimate purpose"?

If a cop does it, it's legitimate.

Kids under a certain age can't commit a crime period.

Oh man, is there something in the water in California that makes them this stupid? It is beyond words. Why didn't we hear of this on the telly news.

This anti-bullying crusade jumped the shark a long time ago... But people have been straight-shamed into letting it progress..
