Is there any doubt that our government wants to make us all criminals?
Because the article does not describe the injuries therefore the government is out to get us?
No, because this matter could have been handled with a generic 'Assault & Battery' charge. What purpose does it serve to make another 'special' crime, and a felony at that?
My remark was meant to highlight how crimes that were misdemeanors and handled by the states a few years ago, are now the Fed's turf, and said crimes are now classified as felonies.
