An Act to prohibit inappropriate language use by sworn law officers..

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:

SECTION 1. Whereas, the misuse of language of a racial, gender, ethnic, origin or religion nature has frequently led to violent confrontations; and
Whereas, citizens have a God-given inalienable right not to be insulted by public servants whose compensation is provided by tax;
Therefore, regardless to any act to the contrary, this act shall make it unlawful and a violation of oath-of-office for any sworn law officers, i.e., police officers, state police, correctional officers, court officers, environment police, sheriff deputies, or any other sworn law officer to use or engage in the use thereof, during, or in the line of or course of duty language which cast a negative reflection toward an individual's race, color, ethnic origin, religion, economic status nor any other category of negative stereotyping.
SECTION 2. No racial slurs, name-callings, nor profanity used directed toward another individual shall be used in the course of, during or in the line of duty, and any such use of the same shall constitute a breach of the officer's sworn oath and shall constitute grounds for dismissal from further duties as a law officer.

Apparently this is for when the "hurt feelings report" is no longer enough.
From this point forward, any joke that begins with, "Two ____ walk into a bar..." is now "grounds for dismissal.

Really? I wonder what Democrat dreamed that one up...probably one that is easily offended.

Foul language has its place in police work, and anyone (especially a legislator) that thinks otherwise is a fucking idiot.

An act making dumb legislation irrelevant:

Any such proposed legislation put forth restricting one's rights, to include anything pertaining to any amendments contained within the Bill of Rights, shall immediately effect treason hearings upon the member of any state or federal legislature responsible for proposing said legislation, to include penalties ranging from forfeiture of assets to execution.

Hell in a handbasket...

You are correct, Sir!

Another lib looney at large.
Sticks and Stones (nursery rhyme)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Sticks and Stones" is an English language children's rhyme. It persuades the child victim of name-calling to ignore the taunt, to refrain from physical retaliation, and to remain calm and good-natured. It is reported[1] to have appeared in The Christian Recorder of March 1862, a publication of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, where it is presented as an "old adage" in this form:

Sticks and stones will break my bones
But words will never harm me.

The phrase also appeared in 1872, where it is presented as advice in Tappy's Chicks: and Other Links Between Nature and Human Nature, by Mrs. George Cupples.[2] The version used in that work runs:

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But names will never hurt me.

This sentiment is reflected in/reflects the common law of civil assault, which holds that mere name-calling does not give rise to a cause of action, while putting someone in fear of physical violence does.

If this abortion passes (I can't imagine it will, I think it will die in committee), it will be used by vindictive appointing authorities to fire their enemies.
