Oh man, you picked an issue that really gets my dander up. Not because of the issue itself, but because neither side is actually reporting what the laws say. They're all misreporting and creating misunderstanding about it. And having read the local papers from there about it, I honestly don't know if it's even intentional. The papers and even the legislature seem to be reciting a sort of collection of urban legends about the issue instead of anything grounded in reality.
