Rutrohhh... I think someone just fell old trick of arguing with someone who Already knew the answers to the questions he just asked. That hardly Ever works out in the favor of the guy being asked.
Perhaps you should not only watch, but listen to a little video entitled
Don't Talk to the Police. Lord knows it's only been posted on this board about a dozen times already.
Over or undersized lobsters?
Read the news here.
Ebony Fingerboard Raid?
The
Gibson Guitar Raid.
On August 24, 2011, around 8:45 a.m. CDT, agents for the federal government executed four search warrants on Gibson’s facilities in Nashville and Memphis and seized several pallets of wood, electronic files and guitars. Ebony fingerboard violate no laws in the United States, however there are regulatory laws in Madagascar.
Think you can get in trouble for say, having a bony fish when there are absolutely no U.S. laws pertaining to having one?
Guess again, see 16 USC § 3370, which makes it a felony for any person to “import, export, transport, sell, receive, acquire, or purchase
any fish or wildlife or plant taken, possessed, transported, or sold in violation of any law, treaty, or regulation of the United States or in violation of any Indian tribal law or regulation of any state or
any foreign law.
Having an Honduran bony fish isn't against any law in the United States, it is against Honduran law, and you can be prosecuted by the United States for violating Honduran law even though you are not in Honduras, and have never been in Honduras. That's at 5:50 of "Don't Talk to the Police" by the way.
Far from being unsubstantiated bull.
I should probably be amazed that anyone can have the naïveté to be on this board and not be aware of these things.
