This guarantee of freedom to assemble is the exact right that this law takes away. Juvenile curfews punish many law-abiding citizens by putting them under virtual house arrest. Because they can't vote, their rights are not even considered. The last time I checked, the Constitution gave everyone the same and equal rights. Sure people in the community should be safe with no worries, but rights of teenagers should not suffer to solve this problem.
Rights are a tremendous thing to give away and too sacred to lose.
Curfew laws punish those who are guilty of nothing but being teenagers. These laws lump the good kids in with people who are out to break the law. I think that it makes sense for children not to be out on the street late at night, but I think parents ought to be the ones to make the decision without interference from the government. Curfews interfere with parental rights of child rearing. In most cases I believe that the police force should catch and punish the teenagers.
