I really doubt that this is the first non-safely related law that has ever been enforce by the police on local business without warrents.
code enforcement is nothing new, and it covers ordinary laws as well as safety.
I hate to see the government doing the RIAA's bidding as much as the next guy, but is this really any different than what the law has been for the last 60+ years? Give me a break.
There is nothing new from a civil liberties standpoint about this law. I don't particularly like this law or anything else with RIAA fingerprints, but the reaction to it here is just absurd.
