Huh... I thought the error was telling everyone to lie down in a nice orderly fasion on the floor so that the mad gunman can shoot them all easier.

I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.
