In an article about a woman being sentenced for punching a 70-year-old Walmart cashier on Xmas Eve -- very atmospheric, that -- they say the woman got:
"2 1/3 to seven years in prison under New York's Granny Law, which makes it a felony to intentionally injure someone 65 or older if the defendant is at least 10 years younger than the victim."I had no idea this law existed. That's great! I'll turn 64 later this year. So the year after that, I'll be sure to antagonize every young man I meet. I mean, it'll be irresistible! How could I not? Talk about a get-out-of-jail-free card!
