Ohio man gets jail for mocking disabled girl

The guy deserves an ass whooping for sure. But I disagree with the jail time. I think it sets a dangerous standard. I disagree with the disorderly conduct law because I don't like vague "catch all" type laws.

I can see this leading to parents of handicapped children using this kind of thing to get people arrested so they can sue to make money off of it even of there is no emotional damage done to the insulted person.
I can agree with this. Disorderly conduct is a catch all law.
 
Am going to go with the bible....

And so in your logic... I call you a dumb butt and I should go to jail?

P.s. mom has C.P. and I was a fatty in school...I know bullying first hand....

Don't make a law... make an education .....

Dumb butt is harmless if talking to an adult but let's go deeper.If you call me a MF"er in front of my child or yours then yes you should and will in the state of GA and most other states also.
 
i been charged with disorderly conduct twice, one was $85fine the other was $200fine, no arrest or jail time. I could understand a cop writing him a ticket, but arrest and jail time is just as stupid as his actions. fwiw i hope he gets shived while he's locked up.

I have seen people go to jail over a tag light...In GA if they can write you a ticket you can be arrested for it.
 
This says it all. So YES you giving the finger can have you charged with disorderly conduct

If FL has the same law as Ga, Then the guy who shot the kid who got pissed off for him asking to turn down there music should get off scott free... Its clear that they were acting in a disorderly way and going to do him harm....
 
I have seen people go to jail over a tag light...In GA if they can write you a ticket you can be arrested for it.
good for you, but just cause you've seen something before or cause it's written in law doesn't mean it's right or that i have to agree with it.

Really???

Running up to someone in their face and calling the MF'r and ranting is threatening , someone playing loud music isn't threatening....Wow some peoples logic.
 
It's not my opinion it's the law and I seen it in action first hand, so yeah.
didn't say it was your opinion, didn't say it wasn't the law, didn't say you hadn't seen it, just said that despite the law or what you've seen doesn't make it right or that i have to agree with it, reading through this thread it's obvious that you don't get that, so i just leave at everyone agrees that he deserves an ass whoopin.
