I can't believe this new bill is even being considered. It's ridiculous how it could impact innocent people like me. The short term affects of this bill are going to be disastrous for many individuals.

This bill is so dumb, like seriously? It's supposed to protect people from wrongful detention, but it's just gonna cause more problems. I mean, who even came up with this idea? It's like they don't even care about the consequences. This is gonna affect everyone, including me, and it's not gonna be pretty.
