By the time it was repealed 13 years later, it was too late. Organized crime had rooted. Now we are a nation where 2 million human beings are caged like animals, most directly or indirectly because of inane laws designed to control morals.
Politicians often campaign on moral platforms because they know it's what people want to hear.

Ergo, more police, more inmates, more judges and more dead young women butchered by the greed of criminals and the ignorance of do-gooders. Sorry ladies, you might not like this. G.I.
