    Can you point to anything wrong in the specific law that is being proposed?

      No, I’m not criticizing the bill’s content. If you don’t enforce laws, new ones won’t work either. The new ones are, at best, an opportunity for people to huff and puff and pat themselves on the back at the cost of actual victims. At worst, it’s smoke and mirrors for what the new law actually does.

        What is the difference between the bill’s content which you aren’t criticizing, and what the law actually does?

        If the law would be bad, can’t you criticize the content of the bill in such a way that it wouldn’t do anything bad?
