It's a problem because people who are supposed to be focused on the betterment of their lousy state are instead engaged in a culture war. That's what makes them bad guys... and that fact that anything Arkansas implements will be bypassed in seconds with a VPN. So why waste the Arkansas tax dollars debating this stupid idea when they're near dead last in healthcare and education?


Sounds like they aren't the only ones engaged in a culture war.


They're legislating their culture war. You don't see the difference? Sad.


It's just democracy. People vote. SCOTUS ruled that there is an obscenity exception to the First Amendment. Given the composition of this Court it will likely be left to the states for the foreseeable future. You should probably use a VPN or leave Arkansas if it is a critical issue for you. Like you said, VPN is probably the better option except for the tax dollars thing.


So let's waste additional resources on legislation that will never hold and can't viably be enforced. You're almost there...


Democracy is messy but better than the alternatives.
