said by franklinn :seems pretty idiotic to me to have a law that never gets enforced.
what happens if it's suddenly enforced ?, or lets say you were caught for something that was minor and the rarely enforced law was used to make it a major issue.
quote:
ADVISORY
BY DECREE OF THE LIBRARIAN OF CONGRESS
IT SHALL HENCEFORCE BE ORDERED THAT AMERICANS SHALL NOT UNLOCK THEIR OWN SMARTPHONES.
PENALTY: In some situations, first time offenders may be fined up to $500,000, imprisoned for five years, or both. For repeat offenders, the maximum penalty increases to a fine of $1,000,000, imprisonment for up to ten years, or both.*
that is the law, and the punishment is defined there in, the punishment is GLORIOUSLY excessive in all sense of the word considering the action(s), and the potential for abuse is quite high.
