    I now spend a lot of time trying to educate a enough legislators so that we
    so we don't have a repeat. Education involves time AND money.

    At no cost and very little time spent, you're already past both these steps.

    they cobled together a law, with little research and not much thought as to
    the finer points of constitutionality, and passed it to solve their existing
    problem.

     

    My wife spent several years educating local towns and eventually got a state
    law passed after several of them started writing massage parlor ordinances
    to rid themselves of places of prostitution. Of course this had an adverse
    effect on legitimate therapists. Without expanding on the point I will just
    relate that now there is a "model" ordinance that towns can use that clearly
    identifies legitimate therapists. Now the ho's call themselves rubdown
    parlors and the cops know where to concentrate their energies. Change can
    happen if one is persistent.
