So are we as a society completely done thinking?
No, the new law would not cut down on anything. It might increase the need to educate people on responsible use of toy projectile *weapons* so as to avoid the unintended consequence of their unwise use. Why not skip the new law and just get on with the education? Teach people young and old about the legal and natural causes of foolish actions.
There are already laws against damaging the property of others and threatening or harming their person. This law is unnecessary and foolish. While the opportunity to add one more category of fine for fleecing the public certainly appeals to the political mind, I would hope that the South Jordan City Council will wisely choose to say no to this nonsense.
