I can't believe that such an august and expensive organ as the US Senate is wasting time with this.

While the country they are supposed to serve has massive working class poverty, a vast divide in wealth, spiralling defence spending, rocketing levels of gun violence and gun related deaths, an obesity crisis and the worst environmental record of any first world country, its over-paid porkbarrelling elected representatives debate whether or not its supposedly free citizens should be prohibited from doing something inconsequential to a piece of cloth.

God save America ... its legislators certainly won't.
