A bill going through NY state legislature would make it a crime to harass or annoy police, punishable by up to 4 years in prison.

Please tell me I'm not the only one with concerns about this. What constitutes harassing and/or annoying behavior to the police? Basically, don't question the officer or stand up for your rights, because you could get arrested & convicted. There's been some scandals with the police around here, so I can't help but worry how and when this law would be applied.
