Follow up on Kentucky HB775
I sent an email to the two Kentucky representatives which sponsored bill HB775. I quickly received a response back from Jimmy Higdon. He informed me that he had received several emails and calls regarding this bill. He stated “We have no plans to move this bill forward”.
The idea of this bill greatly concerned and it does alarm me to think that our law makers are even considering such bills. As we have seen time and time again the internet brings new challenges to the legal system. I’m not oblivious to the reasons why someone may feel a bill like this is necessary. The problem is such a law would never have it’s intended outcome and in the end would actually have more negative results then positive.
Needless to say I’m happy by Representative Higdon’s response to my email.
That being said, the seed is planted so to speak. If one state has considered this issue, expect others to do so also. It may only be a matter of time before such legislation becomes law. I hope not.
