If Soy Sauce is outlawed, only outlaws will have Soy Sauce!
I, for one, believe in the Constitution of these here United States of 'merica and I believe that our forefathers knew exactly what they were doing when they wrote:

No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports of said "Soy Sauce", except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's Laws: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Control of the Congress.

And further:

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, the Sauce of  the Soy, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.


While, I admit, that Soy Sauce is occasionally used for destructive purposes and often with catastrophic results, and while I empathize with those who have been damaged by Soy Sauce, I reject the notion that we as a nation would be better off without Soy Sauce.
Those who wish to cause damage with Soy Sauce will continue to do so regardless of any law restricting Soy Sauce.
Time and time again this has been shown to be true.
According to the latest FBI statistics on "Soy Sauce related injuries and fatalities" released in 2009, 88% of the Soy based attacks in that year were with illegally obtained Soy Sauce or Soy Sauce obtained thru non-traditional sources, i.e., thru the use of 3rd party instruments or thru what has been called the Dim Sum Loophole, whereas those wishing to obtain Soy Sauce quickly and with the least amount of processing or paperwork do so thru some sort Eastern Food Festival or Chinese New Year Celebrations.
These Dim Sum Loopholes will not magically be closed simply because our government bans or restricts Soy Sauce.  On the contrary, I believe these loopholes will be used more often and with more disastrous results.

Please.
Call your local congress person to clearly state your opposition to any new law banning or restricting legal, law abiding 'mericans from peacefully procuring and using Soy Sauce.

Thank you!

A.S.S.
Americans for Soy Sauce.

Woman arrested after restaurant guests covered in soy sauce

Monday, August 26, 2013 by:Lynsi Burton


Police arrested a 52-year-old woman Saturday after she reportedly doused International District restaurant patrons in soy sauce and chocolate milk.

Officers were called about 1 p.m. to the Dim Sum King at Sixth Avenue and Jackson Street after the woman entered the restaurant, told guests to “go back to China” and flipped over customers’ plates, according to Seattle police reports.

She also allegedly spit on a man and covered him and his baby with soy sauce.

Police arrived at the restaurant to find several people standing outside, covered in food, reports say.

The woman slapped an officer trying to contact her in the arm.

Police arrested and booked her for investigation of harassment and assault of an officer.
