Bungleau, my post was not one to be taken so seriously nor as the main point of this conversation...I was not wanting to distract from the main focus point, but since you've asked I will certainly oblige with an answer.

Without wanting to do the research to back-up my post with literal examples, please let it suffice to say that there seems to be a trend that when something gets passed somewhere in some state, the other states worry that their own state will start having crazy people start coming out of the woodwork to push for those idea at home. What I was saying is that people in Florida, North Carolina, and everywhere else that like this guy's idea in New Jersey may try doing their own version of it in their own state once they see any chance of success.

I am not saying that the guy will have success, but neither did I expect South Dakota to pass an abortion ban stating that incestual rape victims could not abort. Well, that stupid law DID pass, and now people here in NC are scared to death that some crazy law will get passed here that will mirror S.D.'s new law that was signed today. It only takes one court success to start a nation-wide change of laws.

My "joke" of a post was to say that in time, we may have to worry about other people pressing the laws in a similar direction, and eventually Florida may be one of those states that would decide to try it in their own courts, especially if they are fueled by the success of NJ's idea...if it were to somehow be a success. Knowing how polititians rule the world with money, if there is money in this somehow for some jerk...the law will be bought.

That's how NJ law can affect IW. That is why I made the silly comment that Ziroc should have contact with his lawyers to help protect the website, because at the time, it sounded like a funny thing to say, eluding to the idea that sooner or later, Florida will have a quack of a lawyer try some strange law that will threaten us someday if New Jersey inspires an idea to be born in a Florida resident's mind.

How's that?
