@th_in_gs If following/not following the law was a crime, then I saw crimes all around me, but in all my years I only recall one person prosecuted, and she was acquitted. OTOH, we met every morning to discuss how to stay off the front page, and when the legislature was in town, we were told to tell them what they wanted to hear, even if it meant lying. Laws and courts just never were a factor. So a great deal of law in that area was undeveloped.
