> It never stopped a thing. Clearly, it only exists to cover someone's arses and check some boxes off the requirement lists.

Yes, and traffic lights and speed limit signs have no physical mechanism of stopping a driver directly, those who violate them escape without consequences 99%+ of the time, and the 1% that get caught are only penalized after they physically did so already. Clearly, security theater at its finest.

To go even further, only 54% of murders get cleared. 46% are never cleared. Which shows, clearly, the rule against murder is ludicrously ineffective security theater. What's the point of a law that only works on a coin flip, am I right?
