Spilling flour now a felony

Does the system even realize what its own laws are?

In New Haven, Connecticut, 2 siblings in their 30s were arrested after they allegedly placed flour on the parking lot of an IKEA store and a bank to mark their running route. They were charged with first degree breach of peace, a felony.

They're charged with felony breach of peace for putting flour on the ground???

Authorities acted as if the siblings intended the flour to look like anthrax, but if they're going to charge everyone with white powder with a felony, then they need to start with a certain national politician. (Hint: he's a Yalie.)
