How is this NOT harassment? I have no words..

Something I remember from my Criminal Law classes is that, quite genuinely, looking at someone (occasionally even pointedly not doing so) can constitute assault.

It seems absurd, looking at someone? Where’s the harm, right?

Well, it turns out it’s so that the law has recourse against people who just stand in a public space and start through someone’s living room window. For weeks.

Just randomly chasing somebody, even without intent to actually harm, is legally assault. It’s not harmless, it’s months or even years of therapy and paranoia against ever going outside your home, if you even think your home is still safe.

TLDR: Yes the law has already seen you play “I’m not touching you” and it is already fed up with your BS.
