609.72 DISORDERLY CONDUCT.

Subdivision 1. Crime. Whoever does any of the following in a public or private place, including on a school bus, knowing, or having reasonable grounds to know that it will, or will tend to, alarm, anger or disturb others or provoke an assault or breach of the peace, is guilty of disorderly conduct, which is a misdemeanor:

(1) Engages in brawling or fighting;

or (2) Disturbs an assembly or meeting, not unlawful in its character; or

(3) Engages in offensive, obscene, abusive, boisterous, or noisy conduct or in offensive, obscene, or abusive language tending reasonably to arouse alarm, anger, or resentment in others.

A person does not violate this section if the person's disorderly conduct was caused by an epileptic seizure.

So what part of 'obscene conduct' do you not understand?

I don't know where you got your definition of Disorderly Conduct because you did not cite your source. It appears to be nothing more than a list of MANY things that *could* be defined as Disorderly Conduct. The connection that you made to Epileptic Seizures, is mystifying. Furthermore, nothing you posted proves your claim that Craig was charged with "Deviant Behavior". You need to get a grip on yourself!

Here is a definition of Disorderly Conduct taken from Find Law, a universally accepted legal source .. and unlike you, I will provide the link to my source: http://criminal.findlaw.com/crimes/a-z/disorderly_conduct.html

Disorderly Conduct

Almost every state has a disorderly conduct law that makes it a crime to be drunk in public, to "disturb the peace", or to loiter in certain areas. Many types of obnoxious or unruly conduct may fit the definition of disorderly conduct, as such statutes are often used as "catch-all" crimes. Police may use a disorderly conduct charge to keep the peace when a person is behaving in a disruptive manner, but presents no serious public danger.

Note: These definitions are nothing more than lists of possibilites that could lead to a charge of Disorderly Conduct. They do not prove deviant behavior. LOL
