Yay. You understand why this whole process is futile. This bill isn't the problem. This bill is a symptom of the problem. The problem is not going away. The problem is the U.S. federal government.
It is an out of control machine of death seeking to criminalize as much behavior as possible.
The U.S. has the highest incarceration rate. They have the most weapons.
This kind of thing will not end until the government collapses in on itself or people have an entire paradigm shift in the way that they think of their relation to their fellow person.
