I would ask the question, “what is the logic of this law,” but then I remember the left’s intent is to criminalize everything and everyone.
We want them broken.
You better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against - then you'll know this is not the age for beautiful gestures.

You fellows were pikers, but we know the real trick and you'd better get wise to it.
There’s no way to rule innocent men.
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.
Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them.
One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone?
But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers - and then you cash in on guilt. Now, that's the system Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."
