UPDATE: A summary of the ballot language to Proposition 35 has been added as a footnote.
Civil liberties are more often than not difficult to stand up for in practice. In theory everyone is in favor of them, but the only times they make it into national debate is when they are under attack. When times are good policy makers and the public don't seem to give much thought to re-visiting prior restrictions. If everything in fine why bother, right? Read below the fold...
