it seems you are of the oppinion that politicians actually give a
shit.about fair and just and all that.
they dont. they are swayed by the active majority,which is actually in the
minority,but they are active.
i dont think the politicians logging on affected squat. its the radical
moralists logging on that
stirred up the crap.
and the two GA laws ya mentioned are pretty standard across the US.
and they are not even among the silliest of laws.
