until they break the law, they haven't broken the law.
drinking MIGHT lead to drunk driving. getting married MIGHT lead to beating your wife. buying a gun MIGHT lead to homicide. buying a corvette MIGHT lead to speeding. (ok, ok, pretty much definitely WILL lead to speeding)
but until you cross the line, it's allowed. your example is a poor one, discharging a firearm is illegal in most places, whether you hit anyone or not.
by your logic, corvettes should be illegal because 99% of the people who buy them speed at some point. Minority Report, anyone?
it's unConstitutional to punish people for what they MIGHT do in the future.Last edited by jockeys; 06-23-2009 at 02:52 PM.
