Hey roger, are they changing the law because of you?

The wording on this is so vague it could be applied to anything based on electronic communication. How does one enforce and prove that the crime was committed?

They'll use the time-tested Arizonian method of checking if the suspect is Latino or not.

On the bright side, this means every pinealist who comes to PD.com will also be breaking the law, since the annoyance only has to occur in Arizona, not the source of the annoyance.

So...  The next time you are offended by... say... a militant pro-life webpage, call the cops?

Freepers calling for the killing of (fill in the blank)...

This, until it goes to court and gets kicked in the teeth, has some potential to raise havoc...

If I lived in Arizona I would abuse the shit out of it by filing complaints against every anti-gay, racist, or anti-abortion website on the internet.

So if you are convicted under this law, you are legally a troll now?
