It comes back to ignorance of the law is no excuse.

So depending on the Lawyers, and the judges and possible jury you are
either boned or get a slight slap and are told do not do it again!

There are those laws that are direct and clear cut, and there are the

And then there are those you're not allowed to even *see*.  In Gilmore v. Ashcroft,
the Department of Justice finally consented to allow a *judge* with a security
clearance to see the text of the law, but Gilmore and his attorneys are still
denied access to what the law says.
 


Which begs the question... How do you break a law that you don't know 
exists?

How can one be expected not to break the law if the law is never made 
available?
