Don’t participate in an insurrection and you won’t need an ankle monitor.

If you are willing to cut off your leg to take it off, than I will be in agreement, but you will still have to show up in court for sentencing. The way they are going, it will be a Bullshit light sentence, so if I was you, I would shut the fuck up. It will be off soon enough.

That's why he's in this position in the first place.

Too bad, so sad. Fucking snowflake...

The article says that he runs a construction business, and it beeps too loudly while he's trying to woo prospective clients.

He's lucky to be THAT free, in my opinion! Good grief! He could be in a prison cell instead!

I wouldn't rule it out considering how many people were there.

That way the only sounds he'll hear are his screams every time he tries to leave his house and gets a high powered jolt of electricity to his neck.

"Your Honor, my ankle bracelet beeps too loudly. I want permission to take it off."

"Okay, I'll give you a choice. You can keep the ankle bracelet and stop doing things that make it beep, or I can put you back in jail."

"But Your Honor! I'm a construction company owner. When I meet clients my ankle bracelet beeps. It's embarrassing."

"What's stopping you from meeting clients in your home?"

"Well...nothing, really."

"Okay, then there you go. Either wear it and stay out of jail, or we take it off for you and escort you to your cell."
