    This is all a blatant attempt to rile up the Right. They know this BS is unconstitutional and start the crap just in time for the inevitable court cases to strike then down around voting time. It’s all about getting that outrage boiling

      Taking the fight all the way to the Supreme Court (where they should lose) costs money. The idiot voters that support this nonsense are sacrificing everyone’s tax dollars to this altar. Meanwhile they don’t have funds to pave roads, etc.
