We are in a very new age in which a 12-year-old girl can face criminal charges for making a death threat... with emoji. And she's one of several defendants across the country in cases where emoji are being interpreted as threats, including one in which a cop emoji was followed by a gun emoji. How seriously should the courts take emoji threats? Because some people see emoji as cartoonish and non-threatening in general, and others see them as the new universal language, capable of serious meaning. (Washington Post)
