    NY is the shining example of the simple creation of a law being enough to entirely extinguish any criminal activity related to it in the entire jurisdiction. This one is so incredibly powerful, in fact, that the very second it goes into effect, the whole state of NY will be unable to cross state lines to acquire said devil boxes, nor even use a VPN to make such a purchase online. Also, sharks are smooth.

      That’s actually an excellent point about sharks that many people don’t realize. I’m petting one right now and it feels like the softest silk.

      I’m all for preventative laws if they are good policy. This isn’t good policy.
