Since nobody's even addressed the issue of enforcement of Existing laws, let alone what impact the new laws, all the arguments are off target.

It has been noted by BI that people now flaunt the existing laws in place. That's wrong, and needs to be addressed first. IMO, because of emotions and fear, they feel a new law will solve the problems and rid the lake of the trouble makers.

IMO, enforcement of existing laws will do that. If not, additional laws targeted AND ENFORCED, could be the means towards the end result.

IF the MP cannot enforce the exiting laws, they need to be given the means to do so. All of the efforts toward getting this feel good law enacted will be for naught.
