The indictment underlying this previous state court conviction identified the prohibited weapon as a "shotgun with a barrel length of less than 18 inches." This type of weapon is commonly known as a sawed-off shotgun. It is reasonable to conclude that a sawed-off shotgun, when possessed unlawfully, is possessed for violent purposes only.

There are so many places we could go with parallel reasoning...

Is it reasonable to conclude that possessing a CD burner, is possessed for copyright infringement purposes only?
