It doesn't say she was menacing anyone. Another student made it known she had a list.

And, the guy you're arguing with is suggesting both parties, the girl and her bullies, should face repercussions.

Dude, just give it up.
You're in over your head.

You don’t know that’s all that happened. Just STFU.
You can try looking in LRS 14, but I think you'll come up empty.
Let me know, though.

Read the statute for menacing. And what does it matter who made it known?
quote:
Menacing is the intentional communication of information that the commission of a crime of violence, as defined in R.S. 14:2(B), is imminent or in progress or that a circumstance dangerous to human life exists or is about to exist, when committed under any of the following circumstances:

quote:You're right. She probably accidentally wrote the murder list. Drafting a hit list is in no way "intentional communication".
The story doesn't say she intentionally communicated anything. Menacing doesn't fit.

It's a good thing the bullies have you here as their advocate. Not sure what they would do without you.

You're right. She probably accidentally wrote the murder list. Drafting a hit list is in no way "intentional communication".

How TF do you know they were just “being mean?” Kids are physically bullied all the time.
You may be the dumbest frick in the history of frickdom

Maybe he's a parent of one of the bullies.

What if, something was actually addressed to the students on the list?

how much of an eye opening experience would it be for a 13 year old girl/boy to realize they might have been a day away from being gunnned down

Do you disagree with that? Should police be able to arrest people for noncriminal actions?

That poster you're replying to is making really bad arguments, but...
quote:Correct, but someone seems to think she didn't just write it down, and that she did intentionally communicate it.
Writing a hit list does not qualify as Menacing
quote:The charge of menacing that states it must be intentionally communicated says that she did this, no?
Again, nothing says she intentionally communicated anything
Posted on 10/5/23 at 4:19 pm to Jake88
quote:Well I have to imagine that she intentionally wrote it down, right? Like she didn't hold a pencil and gesticulate wildly until a set of certain names appeared on a piece of paper.

Even you can understand that, right?

I'm not in favor of people being punished by the state for things that are not illegal.
quote:No, I'm saying you have zero clue if the bullies were just mean to her or what they actually did to the person that was arrested. Do you disagree with that?
