A Tennessee woman was arrested for “poking” another woman over Facebook.

Shannon D. Jackson of Hendersonville, was accused of violating a legal order of protection (restraining order) when she poked a woman from whom she had been barred from contacting.

Jackson’s lawyer described his client as being “extremely shocked” by the arrest.

    Why was the stupid bitch “shocked”. An order of protection BARRING ALL CONTACT, means just that. It means NO contact. It does not mean “no contact except on facebook”…

      Yeah, no kidding. No contact means no contact. You can’t mail a letter, you can’t send a tweet, you can’t poke on Facebook. How hard is that?
