Never let them say that California's legislature isn't looking out for you. Very, very closely looking out for you.

Under legislation sponsored by CA Sen. Debra Bowen (D-Marina del Rey), sites like live-shot.com would be banned from setting up in our fair state. Not only that, but quoting from the bill's text:

This bill would make it unlawful for any person subject to the jurisdiction of this state to take birds or mammals, located both in state and out of state, by means of computer-assisted remote hunting, as defined. The bill would also make it unlawful to establish or operate a computer-assisted remote hunting site in this state for the purpose of permitting the taking of any bird or mammal. This bill would make it unlawful to possess or confine any bird or mammal in furtherance of an activity prohibited by the bill, and would also make it unlawful to import or export any bird or mammal, or any part thereof, taken by computer-assisted remote hunting, as provided.

So, not only could you not operate such a site in California or import the meat you got from live-shot.com, but using live-shot.com (based in Texas) from California would be illegal. The bill recently passed in a Senate committee.

While I'm not in favor of live-shot.com, I'm even less in favor of our nannies in Sacramento trying to micromanage our lives and internet usage. And, I doubt whether there's that large a market for this service either, except perhaps in Japan or China. I predict that live-shot.com will go the way of toys.com. Meanwhile, our fine Democratic legislators will keep proposing worthless legislation.
