But to be convicted of it there has to be clear intent and they have to prove without a reasonable doubt that you were going to assault someone. You know like how the Colts assaulted the Ravens last week ;)
It's one thing to use a disorderly conduct charge to remove someone from a location, but in nearly every case in my experience, the person with the charge gets taken to jail. Being in jail is a little bit more serious than being drunk in an argument with somebody, and being asked to leave. Being in jail is basically a death lottery. Police and lawyers get very desensitize to the dangers of being in a jail. Using an arbitrary loophole charge to remove someone from an area, putting them in jail, where they can easily get killed by inmates, is tantamount to negligence if not manslaughter in my opinion by the charging officer. Technically a police officer can show up to a scene, not do the "hard part" of the job, simly charge everyone, involved or not, with disorderly conduct, and take everyone to jail. This is just generally unethical, and likely unconstitutional. I've seen many immature, lazy, and unethical police officers use this charge with deliberate malicious intent.
Don't cops often use Disorderly Conduct charges because they suspect a person of something more serious, but they don't have enough evidence? Disorderly Conduct gets a person into the system while they investigate more to get the needed evidence for a real prosecution?
Disorderly conduct should not exist as a law. Only physical violence against person or property. Law should be only for physical crimes, not emotional.
Thank you. It's super easy to get convicted of a crime you didn't commit.
I love all your videos! Very educational and helpful for us! Keep them coming :)
@Ali Sunshine: Thank you. Lance will keep it up!

Who arrests someone for breaking their own fucking property. That cop had it out to get me before stepping in that door.
Didn't use any fighting words, literally made a loud noise. It's getting really hard to like cops. It's bullshit.
