Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is now officially a legal authority

It was only a matter of time before the tennants we've infused science fiction with become reality.

Appropriately weighty principles guide our course. First, we recognize that police power draws from the credo that "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." Second, while this maxim rings utilitarian and Dickensian (not to mention Vulcan), it is cabined by something contrarian and Texan: distrust of intrusive government and a belief that police power is justified only by urgency, not expediency.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is actually referenced in the footer of the new law, clarifying the inclusion of the credo. Brilliant! Live long and prosper, friends. Live long and prosper.
