[QUOTE=robmandel;105529]I've been following this for a bit, and hesitated to chime in, but here's the thing. there's two kinds of crimes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malum_in_se

Malum in se - Evil in itself. Murder, rape, assault, etc., need no proving as to the wrongness. they are evil because they are evil, and to others especially.

the other is

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malum_prohibitum

malum prohibitum - evil because it's prohibited by law. everything from building code violations to prostituion are evil only because it's said so by law.

Well said, bring on the revolution ! Oh wait they've already stripped us of most our firearm rights, break out the sling shots!
Where does this end? Today MLPA, tomorrow they'll be putting us in re-education camps.
Our forefather couldn't hunt or fish in the kings forests, The sheriff would enforce this law for the king. Funny how history has a way of repeating its self.
