> If it did solve a problem, it's possible it would be legal.

FL crafted a law to help safeguard someone who gets sued for running over a protestor. I think this illustrates how a law can protect problems rather than solving them.

    the defendant in the lawsuit can use the plaintiff’s participation
    in a "riot," as defined by the 2021 law, as "an affirmative defense."

    This means that the person being sued can argue in court that their
    action was justified by the riot.
