It shouldn't be a crime, but it isn't an unconstitutional law.

I hope we don't enter the "Nanny mentality" where we think that the SCOTUS should determine what's "good" for us.

Pravda means Trutth, you know? Smiley
What a f***ing stupidity of a rule...you want clean subway trains, you provide places to put garbage in. You want dirty trains, you pass rules you don't expect people to keep to.


No, you enforce those rules and people should expect them to be enforced.  There are any number of laws I'd like to see removed and that I consider stupid.  The purpose of the judiciary is not to remove them.

Somebody, of any ideology, we shouldn't  be appointing to any judicial post is someone who say, "The law is stupid or I just don't like it, so I'll make it go away."
