 A main problem with those laws is that the the courts must prove INTENT.
Which is not easy, useless they catch you robbing a house.
I can own a lock pick set, as long as I don't say 
I'm going to break into a house.
 So, the courts would actuley have to catch you speeding with you
detector on to prove intent to aviod
getting stopped (resiting arrest?)
