    Given Barr's political leanings, it doesn't surprise me that he is against BSL.  He is a libertarian; the major principal of libertarianism is limited government and individual freedom, of which BSL is in direct opposition.

    He's also a Georgian, and there's a suburb of Atlanta (Douglasville) where they are trying to enact BSL, so it's a current news story around these parts.

    I, for one, hope the federal law does cause local municipalities to retract their BSL laws!  It'll be interesting to see how this all plays out.
