You lost me.
I asked a simple question requesting a simple answer.
Have I lost you, or . . . have I just blown your mind but teaching you how to approach the criminal law?
The line goes: In American, everything is permitted except that which the law prohibits. In Germany, everything is forbidden except for that which the law permits. In China, everything is forbidden unless ordered by the Party.
When you have a question of criminal law, always ask for the statute.
Example #1:
At the gun shop, you hear this:
"It is highly illegal to carry more than one pistol at a time."
You react by asking for the statute prohibiting the conduct.
