So, let's say your new "Whip the Pissers Act" gets signed into law. Congratulations, there are now public floggings of irresponsible, indifferent young men, and many of them do change their ways. But there are also public floggings of the homeless. Awesome.
Or does your law somehow codify "indifferent and irresponsible" as a condition of the crime?
