re: #274 Obdicut

I don’t think anyone writes laws as a knee-jerk reaction, no. Can you give an example?

I think often politicians use boilerplate legislative language provided to them by lobbying groups like ALEC, the energy lobby, etc.

IIRC, that was exactly the case with SYG: it was written by the NRA and put up by a Florida state rep in response to some high-profile carjacking cases.
