I so love how people spin things. The basis of this is similar to other anti stalking laws, and they are including something similar to the "Do Not Call" legislation and are trying to change it to include being stalked, harrased, threatened, and otherwise intimidated via any electronic device, meaning home phone, cell phone, and computer. It is an attempt to take on "cyber bullying" as a threat or harrassment the same way that you can file charges against someone for doing the same thing using a phone or mail service. It will fall under the same guidelines as any threatening situation that already exists. At least AZ has the balls in the legislature to try and take on things like this instead of worrying about human fetuses being used as a food addiative. Also I don't believe that this was some whim that Brewer came up with, and blaming the governor of any state for coming up with wierd laws (unless they sign them in as law) is just stupid.
You need to read what the law actually says:
"It is unlawful for any person,
with intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten, harass, annoy or offend,
to use a ANY ELECTRONIC OR DIGITAL DEVICE
and use any obscene, lewd or profane language
or suggest any lewd or lascivious act,
or threaten to inflict physical harm to the person or property of any person."
You are actually defending this? You know what? Your statement annoys me, you go to jail.
Arizona really is a strange place.
