Not that I live in Texas, but you won’t have to worry about me if this sort of bullshit becomes commonplace:
A disorderly conduct charge brought by an assistant fire marshal against a woman who dropped the F-bomb at Wal-Mart has been dropped, the city’s interim manager said Wednesday.
When reached by phone, Kathryn Fridge, 29, of Texas City, said she was elated to hear the news and felt vindicated.
Alfred A. Decker IV, La Marque assistant fire marshal, cited Fridge on Aug. 4 when he overheard her utter the granddaddy of all expletives. Fridge, who was shopping for batteries with her mother and 2-year-old daughter ahead of Tropical Storm Edouard’s landfall, said “They don’t have any f—— more.”
Decker took Fridge to his car, handcuffed her and wrote her a citation. City Prosecutor Jay Brown dropped the charge March 19, said interim City Manager Eric Gage.
No “disorderly conduct” charge for me, nossir. One “cockpunch with extreme prejudice” will do me just fine in that situation.
Y’know, I am not a big fan of people who curse in front of their young’uns, I tend to feel that it coarsens society, and as a single man, I’m coarse enough.
That said, I also use the F-word on occasion (see ‘coarse’, above) and if some shit-stain had tried to HANDCUFF & CITE me for a freedom-of-speech issue, he’d have had one fine fucking example of what ‘disorderly conduct’ can mean.

assistant fire marshall, huh? Obviously a man in search of “authority” … who needs a big dose of common sense dumped on his ass! Unfortunately, the article doesn’t mention the lawsuit for harassment, illegal imprisonment and gross stupidity.
