    I’ve said this elsewhere but the main thing I’m uncomfortable about is the new legal precedent being set where there are two classes of adult being created. It doesn’t seem right that one group of people over the age of 18 ought to have more legal rights than another.

      That’s not new legal precedent. Grandfather laws have been a thing for a while.

        That’s interesting - I always understood those as applying to businesses instead of individuals.

      That’s not new. Literally exists on laws for towing trailers depending on when your licence was obtained. My dad and I have the same type of driving licence, but he can tow trailers with his because it was gotten before 2000 or something
