X   I feel that someone along the line has
X   gone wrong.  When a law is made a law
X   that means that it has gone through
X   enought people that think it is needed.

What is "enough" to ensure that a law will always benefit
society, and be worth the effort of enforcing?

X   Now just because 'society' says they
X   aren't going to enforce that law, is 
X   another story.  I feel sorry for the
X   ones that make this happen.  To me
X   a law is a law, and if it is there, it
X   should be followed and obeyed.

You should be careful about spitting off of streetcars
on Sundays in obscure small towns.
(heard of "blue laws" ?)
