Though drugs were not involved in the Blackwater shooting, the Justice Department is pondering the use of a law, passed at the height of the nation's crack epidemic, to prosecute the guards. The Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 law calls for 30-year prison terms for using machine guns to commit violent crimes of any kind, whether drug-related or not.So, depending on the circumstances, resistance to gun confiscation could result in drug charges?
I guess if it comes to that, it won't really matter.
Given enough opportunities for innovation, I suppose all kinds of unusual tactics might emerge.
