Indiana's Naughty Law

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

July 1st marked the first day for a lot of Indiana laws to take effect. One makes drunk driving accidents a violent crime. One makes low-stakes gambling legal in taverns. One well overdue law requires an eight hour hold on anyone charged with domestic violence. One law was overturned by a federal judge the day it came in effect- Indiana's "Naughty Law," as one local news program called it.

Where do we define our moral lines?

Typically, the power group in control helps define what they believe to be obscene or not obscene. However, when everyone comes from different historical backgrounds, their view of scene most likely differs from another person's view.

Yet, somehow large lines have been drawn in the past and still are drawn for small communities today.
