Revenge Porn - Calif. to criminalized private disputes

Revenge Porn

Idiotic Republicans and Democrats join together to

criminalize private romantic quarrels

Jail time for so-called "revenge porn". I smell hack politicians pandering for votes.

The hot button phony issue of the day is poor downtrodden women . . . women who just happen to vote.

But so-called "Revenge Porn" could apply to either sex plus lesbians and gays, but the hacks are targeting scorned women to get votes. The politicians want you to ignore the fact that the photos were posed for voluntarily. Ignore that. Put everyone in jail.

People fall in love and sometimes break up. Bad breakups can produce all kinds of painful and unhealthy fallout: severing relationships with friends, dividing your mingled possessions, seeking solace in alcohol, putting nude pictures and videos of your ex on the Internet.

Commonly referred to as "revenge porn," the practice of posting or disseminating lascivious images and footage without someone's consent has captured politician's vote pandering imagination and the California Senate has passed a bill penalizing those involved.

The legislation, authored by Sen. Anthony Cannella (Republican -  Ceres) and backed by organizations like the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence and the California Sheriffs' Association, makes revenge porn a misdemeanor punishable by a fine or jail time.

Yeah, let's put people in prison for posting photos that the other party voluntarily posed for.

Cannella floated Senate Bill 255 after being approached by a constituent dismayed that an ex had shared photos that "were intimate in nature," reports the Sacramento Bee.

"That was the initial exposure," Cannella said (no pun intended).

In looking for a way to attract votes Cannella claims he did some research and discovered that not only is cyber revenge more widespread than he realized, it's also not illegal. Someone whose privacy has been violated can seek redress in civil court, but Cannella wants them in jail.

The pandering hacks look down on women and think females are weak and helpless and cannot go to civil court. So let's jump up a private dispute to the criminal level and have government prosecutors put people in jail for private quarrels.

A single senator voted against the bill. Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, said he rejected the measure -- also opposed by the American Civil Liberties Union -- because he feared it would undermine First Amendment freedoms.

"While I appreciate the intent of this legislation, I feel it was too broadly drawn and could potentially be used inappropriately to censor free speech," Yee said in a statement.

 

Post a Photo - Go to Jail
Moron political hacks from both parties want to put men, women, lesbians and gays in prison for posting romantic, nude or sexy photos of their ex on the Internet. Never mind that the ex-lover voluntarily posed for those photos in the first place.

These types of private disputes are a matter for the civil courts and deal with contract law.  But politicians want to look big, powerful and tough.  They want to put people in jail to get votes.
.
The public is being told by the liars in the professional women's rights movement that somehow women are "helpless" and cannot go to civil courts like men do.  So district attorneys on the public payroll will act on behalf of those "helpless" women and extract revenge on their ex-lover.
.
  As usual, the insane Big Government loving members of both parties want to criminalize private matters.

 

As a public service
As a public service to the Internet community, here are a few "cleaner" examples of glamour porn photos that could put an ex-lover in prison.
