In 2016, the state of Wisconsin amended its “hunter harassment law” to make it a crime to interfere intentionally with a hunter by “maintaining a visual or physical proximity” to the hunter, by “approaching or confronting” the hunter, or by photographing, videotaping, audiotaping, or otherwise recording the activity of the hunter. In a suit to challenge the constitutionality of the law, the United Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit ruled that the law was vague and overly broad, and therefor violated the First Amendment rights of the plaintiffs.
