If a prohibited person - say, someone with a felony conviction - is arrested in possession of a firearm without the mandated insurance or proof of payment of a fee - can they actually be prosecuted? Wouldn't that mean that despite being a prohibited person, he would still be required by law to pay the fee and get the insurance, thus incriminating himself - admitting possession of something he's prohibited from having - which would seem to be a Fifth Amendment violation?
