People in the town of Middleborough passed law to stomp out all of the swearing. Police can now write tickets to people using the ‘F’ word. What the ‘F’! That does not seem kosher so we investigated.
It’s not legal. One may use potty mouth in both public and private, the Supreme Court determined such ruling it as ‘protected speech’.
People taken to court for using potty mouth have had charges dismissed when it was ruled, as a matter of law, that such words are an intensifier, a part of our language, and can be used with impunity in public domain.
Just as in our first story we again ask, don’t our police have more important issues?
