I think you and cm2187 above are making similar arguments, but to my thinking it doesn't really matter: with the time and money it takes to rectify the situation, unconstitutional laws do serious damage regardless. I'm not a lawyer, but oh what I would give for legal review on the constitutionality of laws as a precursor to implementation rather than post-mortem.
As another person suggests below - these states don't care anyway, they are following the same game plan as 1859.
- banannaise 4y agoPolice departments are also very happy to arrest people over unconstitutional laws. The charges may not stick, but a solid tackle, some tight cuffs, and a rough ride can result in life-altering injuries. They also get the chance to keep the victim in jail for a bit, stick on more charges, and attempt to win convictions via plea bargain.
