Going into a motel immediately is a crime in the US? :) Seriously, I suppose the law would have some sensible definition of immorality. IMO, I doubt what we're euphemistically calling "go into a motel" would be termed immoral. If it were connected to money changing hands that would be considered immoral. Any other definition of immoral and I guess almost all of us men in the US are in trouble. Can anyone tell me why so much of US law is connected with crossing state lines? Could it be a way of overriding local law? Cheers, Gautam
