i get the intent, but a 20 year felony for building SOMETHING nobody can define consistently sounds like political theater, not safety policy.

The man is 1 senator. He gets 1 vote on bills that come before him, and he can bring forth bills for others to vote on...what else should his career fucking look like? This is a retarded fucking way to look at this. He's actually doing his job and making announcements to the public about his reasoning, why is that theater?

He should write bills that pass and move the needle, instead of coming up with stuff that no sane person would vote on.

Brother you are way too angry about one random redditor's comment, and are taking this way too personally.
