Porn industry to pay for the Wall?

A GOP lawmaker wants to fund President Donald Trump's border wall by squeezing money out of every Arizonan who patronizes pornographic websites.

Republican state Rep. Gail Griffin, R-Hereford, recently introduced House Bill 2444, which would require electronics manufacturers to preinstall porn-blocking software on all electronic devices bought or sold in the state, the Arizona Mirror reported.

[...]
The money collected by the state, according to the proposal, would form a number of grants, which would, among other things, help sex abuse victims and fund the president's proposed border wall.

I guess Republicans really don't like paying for stuff that they want, huh?
 
Pretty much anyone with a knowledge of law sees the proposal as unconstitutional, and even if they charged every single person in the state the fee they would have only a maximum of 140 million dollars to use.

That ain't paying for shit.

...and yet bills like it continue to be introduced in several states by the Republicans. Which makes me wonder if they are really that stupid or just plain insane sometimes.

It's the Republicans. I believe that it can always be both stupid and insane.
 
I do like the idea of using the porn industry's money to pay for funds for sexual assault victims and other such pursuits but I would like it to be working with those groups instead of just making a law demanding they do so.
oh and no fucking WALL
Seriously that idea is not bad and if it can be done would be fantastic. Its strange but hey useful.
 
This is a terrible idea.
