Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stalking involves the persistent and intentional pursuit of someone in a manner that would cause a reasonable person to fear for their safety, that may include behaviors such as following someone, making unwanted contact, and making threats. This behavior can be a form of psychological abuse and is considered a criminal offense in many jurisdictions. Aggravated assault refers to a physical attack that causes serious bodily injury, while domestic terrorism is a politically motivated act of violence against civilians, and harassment is behavior that is considered to be unwanted and offensive, but may not necessarily involve a fear of physical harm.
