Absolutely, sex trafficking is a real issue. But this case brings to mind the days of Satanic Panic and mindless overreaction to harmless situations.

So many people keep vacillating about teh idea of secession at all, even "soft secession." The left has said for years that the right can't secede. But then they wish for Texas to get out of the union.
There's nothing in the Constitution that forbids secession. I just want consistency.
See? I'm innovative!
