Yes, it could have easily been missed. Grateful the guiding light shined for the eyes that were open. Just think, this was only a 9 page bill from a small state. I can only imagine what is being submitted in other states right now. I have no idea how laws are created in other countries and honestly at this point it doesn't matter because their enforcement and end results appear to be consistent around the world.
Makes me wonder... Occam's razor What is the common international thread between them all?
