But this guy… How many lives did he decide to end so he can get a little bigger of a paycheck?

Another factor here is that not in a million years would Brian Thinpson face any measure of official justice for this. The government has completely given up on the idea that this sort of harm should be stopped, or its perpetrators held accountable.

Thank you!

Not bad. It should bar obvious, intentional use of the defense, and more subtle uses or insinuations would be tough to cover under any law. Ideally, judges will enforce it as “we’re not getting into this at all unless you can give a good reason that isn’t prejudicial.”

Anyone have a link to the actual bill? Would be interesting to see how this is enforced. A step in the right direction, but how big of a step comes down to that.
