Flag and forget.
And please folks, quit feeding him! That is all he is here for.
Politics and marketing have a lot in common. Both use a lot of fancy words to lie really impressively.
Of course it doesn't hurt that many politicians have actively and purposely abandoned all contact with reality.
Hmmm. Maybe they aren't 'lying'. Maybe they simply cannot see reality any more. In which case they are bullshitting everyone. And most importantly, themselves. It has reached the point where that entire party is nothing more than Baghdad Bob writ large.
The courts don't expect police officers to know the nuances of every Fourth Amendment decision governing the searches of full-grown adults so it sure as hell isn't going to expect a school administrator will have this all nailed down without outside instruction.
If they are not expected to understand exactly what they are doing, why are they even allowed to do it? When did the US become a society that expects every citizen to be aware of the law, except for those with any ability/responsibility to actually enforce it?
Good luck trying this kind of crap as a citizen in court. It won't fly. And if you base on appeal on lack of knowledge of the esoterica of the law, they will simply say - NO. As citizens we are required to have an encyclopedic knowledge of the law, all precedents, all appeals court and supreme court decisions which may bear on our situation.
It's good to be holder of authority in America now. It means that your authority comes with no real responsibilities, but most especially, no consequences.
The law erroneously conflates all sex work with trafficking.
Not erroneously. Deliberately and with malice aforethought. Everyone knew this law would be a shitshow when Kamala Harris started working with Tea Party christo-fascists.

In Texas, life is cheap, and after all, they are just following one of law enforcement's dictums.
No humans involved? Then as long as we follow the checklist, it doesn't matter.
Remember, it is not what a person is that makes them a monster, but what they do. And most importantly, don't do.
