   Uh, criminals don't worry about "street legal" since they are   
   criminals.  Dope dealing, robbery, and murder are also generally   
   unlawful as is possession of a firearm by a felon.  So why worry.   
      
   You don't need protection?  What is population of your three largest   
   cities?
