If I remember correctly, Louisiana's laws are still (to some extent) based on "Napoleonic Code", which would make their interpretation somewhat different than the rest of the states........
I think that this original sub-discussion centered around massive riots in cities, and the ensuing breakdown of law enforcement as a result........under those circumstances, all bets are off, and the time for discussion of all of the legal niceties is far past......
You can sit there with your book of statutes, and let the riffraff overrun your neighborhood if you choose to do so, but here, if they do overrun neighborhoods, they will likely have to crawl through a mountain of spent brass to do so.......this discussion began with a hypothetical....there are some elements of society that have been begging for a "Darwin Award" for far too long. I hope that I live long enough to hand a few out......
And we've wandered way off topic.....
