2. And how are folks finding out about these laws?
Looks like not until they are charged with some crime...

Who were the legislators that put them in place?

How many states have them?

I think there should be some sort of mass protest, but what organization will take that on?

3. In some ways, it's probably better not to get tested.

My first boyfriend refused to get tested even though he was at risk because of things like this.
