        @WSJ meaning we have far too many more laws on the books than previously. Lawmakers need to focus on budget not creating more laws.

        @WSJ well that stands to logic as the more arrests means less criminals on the street to commit crimes... #soundsperfect

        @WSJ why is this amazing? Enforcement is a public demonstration of what happens to bad guys. As you catch more you discourage others.

        @WSJ this substitutes for lower tax revenue by generating fees, fines. Saw that in Ferguson and other places that SAY they have lower taxes
