If a person does it in any other way they instantly become criminals and subject to fine, arrest imprisonment or all of the previous simultaniously. Just like a Cali gun owner :-(

No, it is not automatically a felony, nor does someone witnessing illegal entry have the ability to reasonably determine on the spot that a felony is in progress. Check my post #51.
