Ja, Charlie this is actually a good thing.  As soon as the government steps
outside its clearly-defined boundaries, all those government guns are on our
side, for it is no longer the legitimate government.  That's why we have
clearly-defined legal boundaries to how far the government can go.

I love our constitution.
