@benjamineskola If the local government, unless they want to consider themselves an inferior subsidiary to California, should be protecting their citizenry from California law. I guarantee you, no one in California is tying themselves into knots to follow EU law. For that matter, lots of people in California are breaking Texas law. Thankfully. This is a failure at least as much by your government as by anybody else.

@benjamineskola People in Canada refused to obey things like fugitive slave laws, and it didn’t do nothing. It gave people an option. Countries that refused to implement Germany’s Nuremberg laws gave safe harbor to people running from murderous genocide(of course, some of those countries had their own xenophobic laws, Germany didn’t model their racism on the US by accident). If everybody kowtows to the most draconian laws, then the whole world is as bad as the worst dictatorships.

@su_liam I don’t know where you got the impression that anyone in Europe cares about following US law anyway. Nobody gives a shit. So what’s your point exactly?
