So you're saying mounting a camera on top of a 20mm Gatlin gun and using =
a motion detector for detection may be a bad idea? Damn, I really =
thought I had a good idea for an added WhiteWater defense system....
Actually, professor....I wasn't telling you all to run out and buy some =
of these devices and install them. Rather that someone (some company) =
which I believe was either in Europe or Asia, had developed this into a =
Pan/Tilt Camera.
You'd be liable if the purp tripped at the doorway, fell over, and broke =
his nose on the chip rack.
I could share a few stories of "Dead fall traps" which were, and are =
perfectly legal. But as you pointed out, a liability still exists, and =
it is not worth the actual effort, nor an explanation.
I agree with your statement. (Legally) Personally......I can neither =
confirm nor deny....

      You would be completely liable for any and all injuries the might =
