Roger that. See how fast most of the sillier laws
disappear off the books. The ones that would remain
are those that have a clear and present *victim*.
(Self, as a victim, doesnt count. Why, for instance,
is there a law against suicide?) They would be
laws that practically every rational person
would agree that we need to have. spike
