Attorney, I just want to go back to the clauses in your amendment. It says:

… the making of the statement, comment or remark may be reasonably likely, in all the circumstances, to harass another person, even if the statement, comment or remark is not made in the presence of the other person.

How can you be harassing someone if you are not in contact with them or in the presence of them?
