Bills in TN
Humphrey looks at some of the bills winding their way through the TN legislature. There’s one to ban ownership of dangerous dogs by convicted felons. Because, you know, that will accomplish. And there’s a lot more stupid bills there.
Makes you wonder if they’re just out of crap to do. I mean, we got the big crimes covered already. Murder, stealing, and all that is already illegal. They must need something to make them feel they’re not just wasting time.

And that, Uncle is the essence of why republics fail. Because law is generated constantly in great abundance instead of as needed.

Most “new” laws are rearrangements of old laws, with a tweak here and there, or yet another infringement on the people’s liberty.
After all, if it was such a good idea, why didn’t they think of it, and pass it, a hundred years ago?
