  21. For most Americans, state laws are the ones that impact their daily lives the most.

    But many states don't physically print the laws anymore.

    And if you want to see it online, you'll have to pay.

  23. A quotation from Ben Franklin

    Robbers must exalted be,
    Small ones on the Gallow-Tree,
    While greater ones ascend to Thrones,
    But what is that to thee or me?

    Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist
    Poor Richard Improved (1748 ed.)

  25. A quotation from John Adams

       We are to look upon it as more beneficial, that many guilty persons should escape unpunished, than one innocent person should suffer. The reason is, because it’s of more importance to community, that innocence should be protected, than it is, that guilt should be punished; for guilt and crimes are so frequent in the world, that all of them cannot be punished; and many times they happen in such a manner, that it is not of much consequence to the public, whether they are punished or not.
       But when innocence itself, is brought to the bar and condemned, especially to die, the subject will exclaim, it is immaterial to me, whether I behave well or ill; for virtue itself, is no security. And if such a sentiment as this, should take place in the mind of the subject, there would be an end to all security what so ever.

    John Adams (1735–1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797–1801)
    Speech (1770-12-03/04), Argument for the Defense, Boston Massacre Trial
