that's the part that gets me...HE ISN'T a sex offender but they want to mutilate that law to over prosecute from what I can tell...the guy deserves to spend a few weeks in jail and maybe have to clean up the grounds for a couple of months ,but that sex offender thing...REALLY?

I don't think peeing on a bar deserves jail time. Small fine or community service. You wanna tie up a holding cell and give meals for peeing????
Well you obviously couldn't name any, so my point stands. I get out, its not like people are constantly burning flags all over the place. I was at the occupy camps of a few different cities, nobody was burning flags. I was at the million mask march in DC, nobody was burning flags. Go ahead, if you can find a leftist group that's done that lately tell me about it
Self immolation is setting ones self on fire, usually with the intent of dying in the act. Pretty sure that counts as suicide
There should for sure be different degrees of indecent exposure, peeing on the side of a bar probably at night isn't even close to being that scumbag in a park wearing nothing but a trenchcoat

Okay gotcha on the suicide,I was wondering what you were referring to and I totally missed that.
Googling this alamo pee crime, info includes:
He is now 23 yrs old.
His act occurred "about 9:25 p.m. on a Saturday in April 2012". (do the math)
"A clearly drunk Athens made "the motions of putting his penis back in his pants"; later, "a puddle..... was spotted near where Athens had been standing." (OFFICERS REPORT: he had bloodshot eyes, odor of intoxicants, when asked to stand up he was unsteady on his feet and almost fell to the ground,... )
Authorities initially charged Athens with public intoxication and public urination, both Class C misdemeanor offenses.
Athens pleaded guilty to felony criminal mischief in February in exchange for a deal that capped his possible punishment at 18 months.
wow :-o
This guy's lawyer must be the DA/prosecutor. Lol.
started with misdemeanor and worked up to a felony.

I don't know..guessing pub def. pretty scarey, thinking of my grandkids and how stupid a 21 yr old can act.
Sometimes pleeing to a felony gets you less jail time....it's a trade off ,, they can mess with you afterward( housing ,tougher on repeat stupidity)....felons often find out after the plea that they should have held out for MORE jail time..(and a misdemeanor)..when they can't get a job or apartment
yes, the news indicated he pled guilty to felony for an 18 month sentence, avoiding possible 2 yrs.
That's rough,a pretty steep price to pay for the crime but I have trouble mustering up much pity.Maybe I'm a little too patriotic.
