No, the proposed law requires causing physical injury.
>>So, if I yell a humiliating remark about someone I’m beating, that’s worse than a cold unemotional attack for no reason on that same person? Sorry, that doesn’t make sense.
So, it’s okay to humiliate, just not in a fight? <<
It does seem crazy doesn’t it.
The only possible justification I can see comes from the history near Atlanta.
There is a county just north of Atlanta that had a sign at border “Nigger, don’t let the sun go down on you in Forsyth county.”
I can see an argument that if the first black person who tried to spend the night in Forsyth county was attacked it would be a form of terrorism, not just an attack on an individual but an attempt to inspire terror in a larger population.
But the risk of misuse of these laws is very, very, high.
