Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

And here's the diffs to the law code.
Here are the two most significant paragraphs that were removed:
I have absolutely no idea what this is defining cruising as. What even is repetitive driving? Whats a traffic control point? Google is bringing up military stuff.
Get in your swanky car and drive through town to show it off; then loop around and drive through town again to show it off some more. That's cruising.
The closest "city" to my shitty town was too poor for swanky cars. We used to cruise the strip in shit boxes.
I used to see spoilers bolted to the trunks of shit like Honda civics bc for idiots spoiler = cool, no matter what you frankensteined it onto
During the recession I saw a Honda with honest to God plastic painted dinner plates bolted to the cars wheels. It was ridiculous .
It's an intersection
I see you've never been in Alabama on a Friday night.
Ok just kidding. There's a diff. In Alabama there's so little to do people would hop in each other's cars and just drive slow around the block, usually around some central point like a Mcdonald's.
In Cali it's to showoff. This caused some.. problems. Traffic, yeah, they called it traffic.
Is that why the skinny tires became a thing? To make lowriders legal by getting the rim of the tire as close as possible?
