Massachusetts is a two party recording consent state. One of the few moronic states in the country to still have this.
I don't see how it can be ever proven it was said. If you record the other the person without their permission, you're actually committing a felony punishable by 2+ years in jail (which is stupid as fuck btw). ... Copied to Clipboard!

A community service worker, Takiyah White, told a news organisation that she was the constituent who had asked Mr Hunt to file the bill. I hear the word used every day, and Im hurt by it, she told website InsideSources.So, she's the target of the word.

With the shape of today's political climate, I wouldn't be surprised if it actually passes. There are many people who want to get rid of free speech. Baker will veto it if by some weird off chance it actually did pass. This moron Dan Hunt must be from out of state though and not familiar with the area. The best way to get someone from Boston to do something is to tell them they aren't allowed to do it. Once this goes public he will literally have everyone he walks by on the street calling him a bitch. And this woman thought she heard the word bitch to much before?
