“You are a menace, you’re talking louder than me, you don’t agree with me and now you’re pointing at me with gun fingers. I feel threatened! I’m calling the police”.
All over a minor disagreement – probably about paper or plastic.
Police arrive and can only do what they do best. Arrest the person who didn’t call first or who isn’t performing better as the victim.
You are now charged with Michigan law MCL 750-411h and/or MCL 750-540.
You are a menace to society and will be treated as such.
When you say to the police this person was physically assaulting (MCL 750-81) you as you were trying to leave and blocked you in unlawfully imprisoning ( MCL 750-349b) you with their car (considered a dangerous weapon). The so called victim just screams louder as the performance escalates…
The police now add the charge of resisting arrest MCL 750-81d cause you objected and questioned the reason for your arrest and then you stepped left instead of right disobeying their command.
You’re lucky they didn’t throw more charges at you. Makes easier to get you to plead to a lower charge. Less work.
You are now listed as a threat to law enforcement prompting extreme measures and cautions when you have another encounter. You are a menace.
BTW the “victim” is recording everything to post on their you tube and tik-tok to generate hits which generates cash. You are now a menace and a comodity to be shared and humiliated by the world. Your photo is on their gofundme page seeking emotional safespace donations to get away for a few days and bury this nightmare with a bunch of alcohol by the pool.
You get scolded by the system and told “you should have just walked away, got in your car and left.”
You did and it’s all on tape. You were being filmed, assaulted and blocked from leaving by a nutball claiming they are the victim.
Good job menace – Your now an internet sensation and everybody hates you.
Meanwhile dealing with the courts and law enforcement trying to get documentation and evidence – the “just say no generation” is saying “NO” to your rights or “it’s an ongoing investigation”.
They deny FOIA requests, overcharge for everything and charge for services and documents you thought your tax dollars paid for and just making your life more difficult.
Lesson learned about the system.
You are a menace. What’s a menace to do? Submit and Obey and be labeled a menace in the document vault forever.
Hey menace… Make it easy and plead out. Pay the victim restitution, fines, service fees, convenience fees, the fees to cover the cost of fees, electronic transfer fees, court fees and parking fees. Don’t worry about work loss, your fuel costs, finding a babysitter. Admit guilt and move on menace.
Pleading leads to a life sentance of being a menace

Being a Menace in Michigan – FAQs
Menacing is a crime in Michigan that involves intentionally placing another person in fear of serious physical harm. It can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the circumstances of the offense.
What is menacing?
Menacing is defined in Michigan law as intentionally placing another person in reasonable fear of serious physical harm. This can be done through words, gestures, or actions. For example, menacing could include:
- Threatening to harm someone
- Displaying a weapon in a threatening manner
- Following someone in a way that makes them feel unsafe
- Sending threatening messages or emails
What are the penalties for menacing?
Menacing is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 90 days in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. However, if the menacing is aggravated, it can be charged as a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. Aggravated menacing is defined as menacing that is committed:
- Against a protected person, such as a police officer, firefighter, or healthcare worker
- With a dangerous weapon
- By someone who has been previously convicted of a crime of violence
What should I do if I am being menaced?
If you are being menaced, the most important thing is to stay safe. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. If you are not in immediate danger, but you are still feeling threatened, you should report the menacing to the police. You should also keep a record of all threats and incidents of menacing, so that you can have evidence to support your case if you need to go to court.
Links to Michigan laws regarding menacing:
Q: What is the difference between menacing and assault?
A: Assault is the act of intentionally threatening or attempting to harm someone. Menacing is the act of intentionally placing someone in fear of serious physical harm. The key difference is that assault requires a threat or attempt to harm someone, while menacing only requires that someone be placed in fear of harm.
Q: What is the difference between menacing and stalking?
A: Stalking is a pattern of behavior that is intended to harass, intimidate, or threaten someone. Menacing can be a part of stalking, but it is not the same thing. Stalking is a more serious crime, and it can be charged even if the victim is not in immediate fear of harm.
Q: I am being menaced by my ex-partner. What can I do?
A: If you are being menaced by your ex-partner, you should report the menacing to the police and seek a restraining order. A restraining order can prohibit your ex-partner from contacting you or coming near you. You may also want to consider moving to a new location or changing your phone number.
Q: I am being menaced by a stranger. What can I do?
A: If you are being menaced by a stranger, you should stay safe and report the menacing to the police. You should also try to get a description of the stranger, so that the police can look for them. If you are followed, try to go to a public place or call 911.
