Proto-Proposal:  Decriminalization
(AI = 2, please)

Create a rule titled Decriminalization with Power 2 and this text:

  If a rule defines a method of breaching it as decriminalized,  
then

  no person SHALL initiate a criminal case alleging that that rule
  has been breached by that method, unless the defendant  
intended to

  breach it by that method by performing the alleged action.



There's potential here for recursion -- file a criminal case over  
R2158, then counter-file a criminal case over Decriminalization.  How  
about this instead?


  If a rule defines a method of breaching it as decriminalized,  
then
  a judgement of UNIMPUGNED shall be appropriate for a criminal  
case

  alleging that that rule has been breached by that method when the
  defendant did not demonstrate a clear intent to breach that  
rule by

  performing the alleged action.

And how DO you get the rule paragraph margins properly double-indented?

That's the whole point.

Well okay, if you want to make that a feature.

Your email has the proposed rule in proper Agoran formatting with the  
left margin indented, and the right margin wrapping at the proper  
column.  There's probably some formatting elements in my mail program  
that can do the same thing.

Yeah, the idea is to escalate from you SHOULD NOT try to ding a judge
for a good-faith error but you SHALL NOT try etc..

Right margin is standard, left margin is me doing it manually (usually
starting by copy+pasting from the ruleset).
