WTF how can this be remotely legal?!

I suspect it can't be legal.

My guess is that this sort of claim (and they didn't invent it, they're just the latest to use it) will be an effective delaying
tactic. But that's not all. It might also force courts to make additional distinctions that no one ever thought needed to be made, and now they'll be made with pressure from the same authorities that work with the courts every day.

But that's just a guess (without having read anything but a news report), and we live in 'interesting times' so the usual disclaimers apply. There's lots of things going on that very few of us would have ever thought could be legal.

Cheers,

Not to mention that rent-a-cops have restrictions for their weapons. I'm sure the rent-a-SWATS would love to have their rifles taken away, and their pistols replaced by ridiculously big flashlights.

We might need to have a sniper take a shot.
Sir, um, since we became a corporation and the public caught on, our snipers just have tasers with scopes on them.
