So nothing to worry about. <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Well, you see, the government doesn't know that you are harmless, and would preferr to not have to take the time to determine if you are or you aren't, when it's easier for them to just say "don't do it, and if you do it anyway, we are gonna mess with you big time" <br /> <br />When I said it was Only a crime if you get caught , here's what I meant: <br /> <br />A MP comes along, catches you, and starts to apprehend you. <br /> <br />You try the ol "What am I doing wrong?" gambit, and with the outright prohibition, the line level MP doesn't have to be smart enough to make an on the spot field determination if what he caught you doing is "wrong"..He will ahve enough "power" to haul you in, just for being there, and you will likely be interrogated by a skilled inspector who will be able to look at your film and decide quite accurately what you've done "wrong". <br /> <br />That's my opinion anyway. cops on the beat are not gonna be trained lawyers, they think from the neck down. So the rules they are paid to enforce are written to take that into account.
