It is illegal to annoy me

The city of Brighton, Michigan has passed an ordinance making it illegal to annoy another person.  Now they’re denying that’s what the ordinance says.  Here is an excerpt from a PDF found at the city’s web site last week:

“It shall be unlawful for a person to engage in a course of conduct or repeatedly commit acts that alarm or seriously annoy another person and that serve no legitimate purpose.”

Well, certainly malcontents standing around waiting to be offended have to be delighted by this news.  Ditto rules fetishists everywhere; no longer must you stop at homeowners’ associations!  Your city has arrived.  (Y’all better pack up and move there before they defang your law.)  And how could you not be fully engorged thinking of all the people you could sue?
