SC Senator Robert Ford Wants To Outlaw Profanity

What the hell is this shit?

South Carolina State Senator Robert Ford is hoping to outlaw lewd language and is pushing for a bill that would prohibit profanity:

Under the bill, profanity could land you in jail for up to 5 years and/or cost you up to $5,000 in fines. Which words are exactly considered profane is still unclear, but the bill does have a list of qualifications for profanity including words or actions that are lewd, vulgar or indecent in nature. Courts will usually look at where the words were said and who heard them. Children are usually protected.

No Cusswords

The bill can be read here.

The only obvious response to a bill of such nature is to write (and shout): “Fuck You, Robert Ford”
