I found a very interesting half baked idea by a redditor in
response to new harsh privacy invading laws after the Paris
tragedy
> If they want to make a new law they should make one
that
says no new laws are allowed to be made immediately
following a national tragedy.
This would give
the media the time to recover their posture
and provide proper critical look at laws that are usually
ramroaded during these kinds of periods.

A nother option would be to pass a law saying that
new laws can only be enacted after a 9 month delay. |

//no new laws are allowed to be made immediately following a national tragedy// |

So instead we should spend that time debating the meaning of the word "immediately"? |

Shirley this just a hardware fix. Simply
applying two electrodes to politico's lower legs
and applying a modest current somehow
geared to the news? |

[+] ... although you do realize that we should probably wait
a few months before enacting the "anti-kneejerk act" to
follow the spirit of this new legislation. |

Darn, I thought a loophole had been found to the Patellar reflex. |

The crisis is ever the friend of the state. |

A mere Law wouldn't be good enough, because the same
knee-jerk reaction that might pass a bad law could also
overturn a simple anti-kneejerk Law. This Idea needs to be
at the level of a Constitutional-Amendment in its
effectiveness. |
