I-1125: More Eyman Garbage
Published at 09:18 on 20 October 2011
I was actually for a moment inclined to vote for the thing, because it bans red-light cameras, which are one of the many tentacles of the emerging total surveillance society. Alas, it is cluttered up with two other unrelated provisions related to tolls and gas taxes. So forget it.
And this is not just my personal pet peeve here. Article II Section 19 of the Washington State Constitution says that all bills (and an initiative to the people counts as a bill) must address only a single subject. So the initiative is yet another piece of legal garbage from Tim Eyman which will end up in court if it passes.
