Not a defense as such, but my first question would be "Where are you gonna get the money for this?".
Secondly, if we were to use abortion as the example, is this retroactive? How many women are really going to tell? And if we use guns, what about my Winchester Model 37 that has no serial number? Will I be required to have one put on it by BATFE? And if so, at who's expense?

As a defense, will I be required to allow BATFE or someone else to come into my home and check all my guns? If so, then I'm going with an unreasonable search of my property.
