Two College Students Arrested For Saying N-Word

why does the law currently exist then? State level? The police have to be able to point their finger in the book of the charge 'ridicule on account of creed, religion, color, denomination, nationality or race'.

Legal Challenge or legislative actions are about the only way to combat unconstitutional laws.

[KrampusBuilder]

How has this law not been challenged? It is an American's constitutional right to say whatever they want to another person including "ridicule".

It probably isn’t enforced.

The only speech that's not protected are making threats against someone and yelling "Fire!" or something similar in a crowded place. This law in Connecticut is flat out unconstitutional.

[Steemboat]

Probably unconstitutional not only under the First Amendment, but also the Fourteenth (Equal Protection, Void for Vagueness Doctrine).

Imagine a mother walking down the street with her little boy who is also black and someone is playing rap music with the same exact language?

Oh wait

I wonder why rappers no longer say ******* on songs anymore??
I wonder why 21 Savage had to issue an apology for his lyrics that reference how Jewish people are known for saving money?

Black people have tried to get rappers to stop saying the N-Word and B-word for years..... It is the white label executives who defend, permit, and encourage the use of the N-word in rap music....

Crazy how you can make an entire song about killing black people.. But say 1 word about a gay person, a jewish person and all of a sudden people are concerned.

unfortunately since 2012 in Connecticut it is apparently

Jesus Christ it's that recent? I thought it was something from the 60s or something.

How is ridicule a crime, and also how is $50 dollar the equivalent of 30 days in jail?

What if it was an Asian person doing the same thing or a "fair skinned" Latino? Would they also get jail time?
