Q

Secondary Effects

A

Rarely Successful
1. A law is facially Content-Based, but treated as Content-Neutral because of secondary effects on the community (Crime and property value decreased).

“It looks like content-based” but it is actually “content neutral” because there is some other outlining government/state interest.

  1. Can be used only if the focus of the law is on the secondary effect and NOT on the primary impact of the message.
