Well, I'm a bit jaded here. I do believe, without any real proof, mind you, that the motivation behind these laws is nefarious and based on the assumption that at least some of the arguments are true, and that there's consequently a benefit to be gained. All the effort put into drafting these laws to prevent a problem that doesn't exist seems a bit silly. However, I also think it's a mistaken premise, and in the end there won't be much of an effect, other than a ton of hot air and mud slinging. In other words, I think both parties to the argument are silly, opinionated and misguided. Much as I might be :-)
