Not to toot our Colorado horn too loudly here but I really feel like this state, my home state, is one of the few sane places left in the US (but seriously please don't move here haha).

It’s bittersweet, don’t you think? On the one hand, it’s good that such a law was supported at the highest levels. However, in truly sane places, there are no such laws because the police would never think to involve themselves in such a matter in the first place.

Some social norms have clearly disintegrated, but now there is a law to patch it up.

The reasons why the social norm disintegrated in the first place remain unresolved.
