«Silly Bills»

On the Opinion page of Press Telegram, someone has a discerning mind (the article is not signed), referring to "silly bills" trying to squeak by legislature. And yesterday's post on Assemblywoman Sarah Reyes's bill that would require cell phone companies to make the camera feature audible made the list!

"Legislature has too much time on its hands. And it's not just foie gras they're wasting time on. It's silly legislation like a bill proposing to incorporate the principles of feng shui in state building codes. Or whether keeping ferrets should be legal. Or whether cell phones with built-in cameras should broadcast a warning beep when their owner is taking a picture. Or whether it should be a crime to declaw wild cats".
