to the extent that it would cost goverment bodies money [ie taxpayers] it certainly would...however I believe the burden will still fall on the citizenry everywhere [its still guilty until proven innocent in most of yer list ] and the treasonous scum who willfully stampede on civil rights, personally, shall not be infringed...

Although a prosecutor will not generally receive any sort of sanction for bringing to trial a case which he obviously cannot win, prosecutors who make too much of a habit of such things may find themselves seeking employment elsewhere.

I would love to see cops who arrest people for actions they cannot reasonably believe to be prosecutable crimes face trial themselves, but I can't realistically see that happening until it is established that most gun rules are unenforceable. Proving that a cop didn't have good cause for arrest may not be hard, but proving that he could not have reasonably believed that he had good cause is apt to be much more difficult. Since prosecution of a cop would require meeting the latter standard, there's a ways to go before such prosecutions would be feasible.

cops are allowed to be ignorant of the laws they 'enforce'and prosecutors can prosecute 'bad' law if they choose to.

And while both should be held to a very high standard [being entrusted with life & liberty] and should be prosecuted for violations, the scum that bold faced says F.U to The People by blatantly drafting and passing 'law' that is in obvious conflict with established case law [such as Heller] or plain English [such as 'shall not be infringed' ] shouldve been summarily bound and publicly lynched or shot on the council lawn...

ANYTHING less, which is what weve NOT done in a hundred years, just furthers the degradation of the Republic and allows these POS continue their agenda...

The Govzilla monster has outgrown its cage and individually we all know we're martyr wannabes if we oil the pitchfork alone...

that is why it will continue to be litigated till hell freezes over or socialism finally wins...whichever comes first...

LFOD...
