Easy to scoff, harder to find a solution to what is apparently large numbers of us have simply just decided are the breaks of the game.
As said very early in the thread, the spirit of not talking about it because everyone has an entrenched opinion is the one that will ultimately make this an all or nothing issue.
I think we have numerous weak compromise laws on the books that are not particularly effective. I think we need stronger ones. I agree when we point to these weak compromises that they don't work too well, thats true. They were flawed to begin with since this is such a knee jerk issue for most.
