Crap.
Well this sucks dont it? Mostly because im MOVIN there, hope the bill doesnt get passed, but i can imagine a whole LOTTA people outside of the legislature in Pheonix with troll face masks, and signs that have troll faces on them, this mean i might not be able to troll the cts on jail anymore.
Any feedback?

seeing a ton of people gather around in trollface masks would be fun, but it would be better to take it one step further and start up a new religion in which follower must wear troll masks while in public. troll them with both the right to free speech and religious freedom

Erm, it seems trolling is already illegal in UK:

I imagine that's the sort of thing they're trying to stop in Arizona.

It really started in 2008. I don't agree with what people do sometimes, but as long as it is constitutionally protected, there should be no crime.

Well if I ever get arrested for "trolling" all you have to do is appeal it until you get to the Supreme Court and then it would be overturned. Freedom of Speech is anywhere in the US, including online.

Abuse in the UK is a crime, not trolling, the bbc does not understand the internet.

Ya know. Trolling is just for laughs and even the person being trolled needs to be informed that they are joking. Although I can see how it ties into cyber bullying, Its just not over the internet. Me and my friends troll each other in real life all the time. We constantly make fun of each other and thats how us guys hang out. Its a stupid law. Trolling in general shouldnt be against the law. Cyber bullying should be against the law. They are 2 very different things. Trolling is meant for fun and in no way to bash any person. Cyber bullying is to bash someone based on stupid things like religion/race/beliefs/personality/looks.

I live in Arizona - I've heard nothing of this. But - they like to start things like that all the time here. doesn't surprise me.....

this post is a troll post, cuz its against the 1st amendment. As long as speech doesn't physically hurt someone you can say whatever so this doesn't make sense?
