Like everything else Imperial Washington does, this proposal sounds benign on its face and can easily be sold to the massively uninformed population that is necessary for the expansion of the nanny state. However, this measure would only grow if enacted, just like every other allegedly well-meaning piece of legislation has.
I don’t trust DC to successfully police much of anything and this BS about “there ought to be a law” conveniently ignores the multitude of laws that are already ignored. I do not defend piracy but it’s like the TSA – we treat everyone like a terrorist based on their luggage rather than focusing on the folks who fit the mold. Profiling? Damn right; it’s used because it works.
