The big question I have for you is WHO is going to inforce this
law. The local police know nothing about it and I was told by one
officer that even if he did he would not enforce it as how could
he prove that it was going on without getting a court order. Then
what judge would give him the court order without haveing strong
evidence that the illegal activity going on.
This is another fine example of a law that can't be enforced.
