The whole episode took about a half hour and we made our flight.
This is the most amazing part of your story. Of course, in the USA it would
have taken a bit longer because of bending over, latex gloves, and other
fondling.
Thats my biggest beef with laws that punish possession.
Bingo. And that's my biggest problem with how "mens rea" has been grossly
distorted in this country over the past 4 generations. This has been especially
true with anything firearm related.
If you have an unregistered suppressor/silencer, you must be an assassin.
If you have an unregistered machine gun, you must be a danger to civil order.
If you have >X0 round capacity mag, you must be preparing for mass murder.
If you have a bullet with a core of something other than lead, you must be a cop killer.
The next round of mental midgetry will apply to semi-auto rifles, >5 rd mags,
and any kind of bullet capable of piercing a wet paper bag.
I understand that the attitude of "parens patriae" comes into play with judges,
lawyers, and the State in general, but I find it interesting how they will push
PP all the way to the hilt on public order & safety when it comes to the 2nd
Amendment, yet none have been anywhere to be seen when it came to the
financial looting of this entire country over the past year.
Which was the greater danger to public order and national economic security?
Hmm?
