    2. Legal

      In the Legal Forum we try to understand what the law is (including court decisions and proposed laws), how it works, and how it applies to RKBA issues. We focus on the way things are – not the way we think they should be. However, nothing in the Legal Forum is intended to be, nor should it be considered, legal advice.
