this is the 3rd time the three strikes law has been passed, it fundamentally flawed because of the fact that denies access after three strikes.

yet they keep trying to get it by the courts anyway

(hell the first one didn't even have an appeal process if you got reported so it was really bad)
Fair enough. that is how the system works. Lawmakers pass laws that tend to try to encompass everything, they get challenged in court, get changed and we play the game of round and round. Eventually a law will be passed, the question is what will it entail and will it be fair.
