Bi*ch Please: Democrat’s Bill Would Punish Curse Word With Jail
23rd October 2019
Democrat Daniel J. Hunt (whose last name was surely a playground favorite) introduced “An Act regarding the use of offensive words,” which would fine individuals $150 for a first offense, while repeat offenders would face a $200 fine, up to six months’ imprisonment, or both.
Problems? What problems?
Cambridge civil rights attorney Harvey Silvergate says Hunt’s bill isn’t legal.
“If it’s challenged in court, it will take minutes for a judge to see through it,” said Silvergate. “It doesn’t have a prayer of surviving, so why should the Legislature even burden us — the citizens, the press and the courts — why would they burden us with this nonsense? Surely they must have more important things to do.”
More important than Democrat virtue-signaling? I think NOT.
