Va State government hard at work today

Your Va. state 'officials' are hard at work today deciding whether to pass a bill that would fine people up to $50.00 per incident for low-rise jeans / clothing if anyone (like the police) deemed them..."So low as to be too revealing and/or offensive to others"

Yeah that's right........your local tax dollars being spent wisely.

These days, regulation is only okay if it regulates people. Individuals. What's not okay is regulations that limit the damage caused by businesses. It's a bit of a topsy-turvy world that I don't understand how anyone can defend. But I do get amusement from folks who try.

I really believe that some of these guys try to get bills/laws passed that are so rediculous that it gives them their 15 minutes of fame.

My first post, and it is not Porsche related. But I can laugh at this, b/c otherwise I would cry. I mean g-forbid the state not regulate something, otherwise society would fall apart! Good to see my tax dollars are paying for something useless.
