The Law Explained

Bernards Township technically still harbors an old ordinance stating that citizens must maintain a pleasant demeanor, effectively outlawing 'frowning' or visibly sulking on public streets. Conceived as a moral booster during difficult economic times, it was intended to maintain a positive community atmosphere, though it is entirely unenforceable under the First Amendment.
