I'm refraining from making a glib, catty response here.
Of course laws do not apply only to lawyers, and to assume I said as much is to dodge the issue - laws apply to everyone, but I'm certainly not going to trust a British somebody and a early-20-something to decide what's actually legal and illegal for us - I'll leave that to the lawyers, thanks.
You're a retired lawyer, please, chime in.
