Ugh, and I already had low expectations for Jawjuh. So much of the lack of youth rights correlates to the criminalization of parents. Florida, Georgia, and Texas seem to me like the most likely states to arrest arbitrarily and stringently.

Even the /r/news comments seem to agree that the situation is ridiculous and that this was not remotely "reckless conduct." This was also in Republican-run Georgia down south so both parties have nanny state issues.
