Yes I understand the law, my protest is in the fact that it is now being used as a technicality to back door legislation that is against the people. My personal feelings on government is that they should act as a framework of government for the citizens interests first. Which is not what we have, we now have a government that finds every loophole available to act in direct contrast to the interest of the people. I don't think I implied that what they where doing was not available to them by the letter of the law. Rather I believe that I stated that I am sick of the letter of the law being a tunnel for anti-rights legislation. Again I go back to the UN small arms gun treaty. Given that they cannot deal with guns in the current domestic framework available, they are position the UN small arms treaty to help them deal with it, through this same backdoor. While it is technically legal, it is totally corrupt.
