Guess I'll start preparing my defense against a homicide prosecution,  
as I am on record as having purchased firearms.

I suppose I'll also have to defend against various game law  
violations, as a weapon could certainly be used to do that.

Honestly, anyone who would host a project in the USA these days is  
crazy, if they have other options.
