This whole situation reminds me of a little kid [[Detroit) not wanting to clean up its room. Mom & Dad have said, "If we need to clean your room, we'll throw away whatever we need to." The kid's response is not to seriously clean up the room, but rather to protest that the parent's don't have the right. Good luck with that, kids.
My friend, I would like to know where you came across the idea that a law, any law can't be repealed? Last time I checked, this is still a democracy or have the Republicans already turned Michigan into a dictatorship.
