I dunno, the comstock act?

The way SCOTUS works is they render it impossible to enforce a law. It doesn't actually remove the law from the books.

It's a legal hack - the government can't enforce it when its made unconstitutional, but it still exists unless they explicitly remove it. Hence Texas' legal hack of allowing citizens to enforce a law.

Which is completely fucking bonkers and should be squashed ASAP, lest these states go completely rogue.
