alright wtf
Wow, that didn't take long at all.
[QUOTE=NixNax123;44155942]alright wtf[/QUOTE]
its an invasion of privacy. The human body is regarded as the most private thing in legal terms.
[QUOTE=NixNax123;44155942]alright wtf[/QUOTE]
What do you mean what the fuck? It's kind of a really shitty thing to do.
Besides, that's the maximum punishment. First offenders likely won't get anything like that.
[quote]The bill states that anyone who "photographs, videotapes or electronically surveils" a person's sexual or intimate parts without consent should face a misdemeanor charge.[/quote]
My arm is very intimate to me, and it was just recorded by this SLEEZEBAG on the bus. Fucking press charges. If you want to make upskirts illegal, make them illegal. Don't make a law that allows loose interpretation. Anyone can claim any part of themselves is intimate and this country's stupid enough to agree in court with it should someone make a claim like this

Are you fucking serious haha. You actually think that the state will prosecute for someones [I]arm.[/I]
You have no idea how this shit works, so dont go commenting on it

and this whole "well thats really vague and needs to change" bullshit also needs to stop. Just because the news makes it simple for everyone to understand, most of the time the law is very specific.

UP TO is the key word here, say, for people who have been charged with it a dozen times

It was in quotes, not paraphrased to be simple to understand, If people didn't sue or press charges in some way and win over something completely stupid, then you wouldn't see labels like CAUTION HOT on a cup of hot coffee, or instructions to "open bag, eat nuts" on the small packages of peanuts airliners used to give out
There's been robbers shot by the store owner sue the store owner because of a lack of policy on the safe and lawful use of firearms, another guy sued apple because he got addicted to porn, and you want to say that there aren't going to be people that will try to take advantage of a slightly loose interpretation?
Who are you to say my arm isn't an intimate part of my body? All an intimate part is is a piece of the body usually kept covered in public. So where's the ruling going to stand on taking a photograph of a woman in a burka If she decides she doesn't like it and calls the police?

No judge or jury is going to prosecute someone because you regard your arm as sacred ground or some shit
You're talking about putting someone in prison for a felony offense of filming a persons face and putting it on youtube. Its not going to happen
can't shove cameras up girls skirts in public areas anymore? it's political correctness gone mad I say.

Well maybe you shouldn't show off your arm like a slut?
