   In the event any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this chapter shall be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional, such adjudication shall in no manner affect the other sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this chapter, which shall remain of full force and effect as if the section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase so declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional were not originally a part of this chapter. The General Assembly declares that it would have passed the remaining parts of this chapter if it had known that such part or parts of this chapter would be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional.
