AndyS said:It probably shouldn't.
But, the people who live in that State voted for Representatives who drafted and passed a law making it illegal. Evidently it's what the majority of people who live there want, or it wouldn't exist.
That is patently false. Elected representitives don't necessarily represent the masses. Nor do legislators legislate by popular demand.
It doesn't have to make sense, it is what it is, and people who don't like it are free to try and convince other people that the law should be changed, or repealed altogether.
The problem with your solution for those who don't like the law is that those who don't benefit from the law are not part of an organized group, and those who benefit most from the law are.
Or they could move to another State, or they could break the law, but if they choose that route, they shouldn't really whine about it if and when they get caught since there were other choices.
