If you want on or off this list, please let me know!
This has come about after much badgering by you, my friends and extended family...

In a unanimous ruling, the court found that the voyeurism law only protects people in places where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy.

Like under their skirts, maybe?

ROAD TRIP!

the court found that the voyeurism law only protects people in places where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy.

Sounds like a court that is unable to think outside the box. A very dumb interpretation of that law, IMO.

Why not expand "in places" to include "in places and circumstances"? It is certainly reasonable to expect that one will not be subject to cameras looking under one's skirts.

[Just another Joe]

Just another thing to lament.
In the old days they just would have been beaten, shown the town line, and told not to come back.

In a related story, Bill Clinton is moving to Washington State.

[Little Bush]

Oh, and where shall I continue to pay my hard-earned tax dollars? Judge DumazPigMan? Ever heard of "Making Law"? Anyway, I wonder why these men need to do this? Could it be that women do not find their personalities appealing? Now how could that be?! The should be hung! (haha)

[HEY4QDEMS]

All rights aside, if I caught anyone doing that, even if I did not personally know the victim, I would take his camera and use it to give him a complete colon exam.

[Ditto]

Women still wear skirts?

[AAABEST]

I'm moving to Washington and opening a shoe camera store.

[waterstraat]

Bid deal. Very few women wear skirts these days, there are probably now more male transvestites that wear skirts than women.

[Young Werther]

In my era women/girls didn't wear patent leather shoes because...?

If the Washington Surpreme Court wished to maximize this pronouncement they could have held a press conference in BeaverTown Washington!

RE:Photographing or videotaping up a woman's skirt in a public place doesn't violate Washington state's voyeurism law.
 
fine.
all right folks listen up. If your ever called for jury duty, in an assualt trial dealing with a husband, boyfriend, father, (or even son) who beat the living crap out of and hospitalized someone who was pulling this crap on a wife, grilfriend, mother, daughter, be advised of your right and duty to aquit them of all assualt charges.

[Kermit]

All righty then, Washington FReepers need to find out, which Idiots on the Supreme Court voted this way and make sure they get voted out at the next opportunity. I couldn't find who voted how, but here's the court directory.

Unless the Court ruling worded it at least somewhat differently than this reporter did, this is insane. You have a reasonable expectation of privacy under your clothes. Otherwise, why the hell do we wear them? (at least when the weather is nice.)

Have you seen this?

[connectthedots]

As the undisputed expert on the workings of the Washington State Supreme Court, I am in complete agreement with the WA Supreme Court in this case. If you want to read the opinion: Push this Puppy

They've screwed up a lot of other decisions lately, but they got this one right.

[petuniasevan]

So it's okay for disgusting slime to film up women's skirts in Washington State?

How about an additional WA Supreme Court ruling?

"There shall be no law or stigma attached to said women's right to enlist passersby in the beating of said slime."

Rail, tar, and feathers to be included in the above ruling.
