This act no matter what it's intention, is Unconstitutional and Unamerican.
The same thing goes for the anti-flag desecration legislation. Even though I am a veteran and it hurts me to see weenies and hippies to burn our noble flag, it is still a right of the people to burn it. Norm Eadie says: "Patriotism gives symbols meaning. Enslaving people to symbols destroys patriotism." That is why I am against laws such as flag burning and Defense of marriage act.
I am deeply saddened that such things which are blatantly illegal such as these laws go unnoticed or unchecked by most everyone. People are too comfortable in their everyday lives to actually give a shit. Legislating people's lives is a losing proposition(just look at Prohibition!) Until people start caring about their roles as American citizens, we will continue to have our rights trampled on by Govt. goons. A gay marriage ban here, a anti-flag burning law there and a weapons ban somewhere and before you know it, the public is backed into a corner wondering how shit got like this with federal agents putting them in detention for being a gay, jewish black Klan member who supports abortion.
Sorry if I'm ranting but things like this really burn my ass.
