I didn't know what to call this.
Anyway, this semester I had speech class; one of the assignments was a persuaive/motivational speech where you had to find some law and say it should be changed. Topic ranged from rape to pollution to gun control (guess who did that topic).
I had to listen to 23 speeches. A common theme was something like "This law varies by state. We need a FEDERAL law so that the whole country is the same regarding this issue...". I heard this over and over. I was thinking to myself what a bad idea this was, thinking the states should be able to decide for themselves on these issues, and the scope of federal government is too big. Why have states in the first place if the fed.gov makes all the rules?
But then I get on here and read about people who think we need CCW recipricocity, and who complain about being legal until you cross a bridge (or some point on the bridge) and then being a criminal. So now I'm confused.
