Arizona House Rep. Gail Griffin (R) wants the next Arizonian who logs on for some risqué web browsing to pony up for a border wall against Mexico.
According to the Arizona Mirror, Griffin recently introduced a House bill that would require tech manufacturers to install software on Internet-accessible devices that would block pornography until the user pays $20.
All the money would go to what the bill calls the “John McCain Human Trafficking and Child Exploitation Fund.” The fund would allocate grants for the state to “build a border wall between Mexico and this state or fund border security,” among other purposes.
Needless to say, the bill probably isn’t going anywhere.
“It’s pretty clearly unconstitutional,” Mike Stabile, a spokesman for the Free Speech Coalition, told the Mirror.
The bill seems connected to conservative lawyer Chris Sevier, who has attempted to push similar bills in more than a dozen other states. His bizarre record also includes: suing Democrats for flying pride flags, fighting gay marriage by repeatedly trying to marry his laptop and suing Apple for letting porn ruin his marriage.
