    They did the same thing with filming factory farming. They made filming conditions illegal as it might hurt the industry.

    It’s blatantly unconstitutional and like the article says, the republican legislatures will just keep trying to pass them with minor modifications until they get through. And it works between states too, just like with abortion legislation. If one state’s law is overturned, the next state will take that into account when they pass their version.

    This is why I will never stop donating to groups like the ACLU, even if I disagree with them on Nazis being allowed to propagandize. I think that we can legislate against hate speech, as most developed countries do, without endangering democracy. But I agree with them on so many more things than that, so I want and need to help keep them in the fight.

      Or like when Arkansas got caught letting teenagers work in slaughterhouses, so they changed the law to make it legal.
