My car is capable of 140, should I be charged with "speeding"?
My kitchen knives are capable of killing my neighbor---should I be charged with murder?
My bottle of fireball in my liquor cabinet is capable of making me drunk---should I be charged?

The law kind of reminds me of the move "Minority Report" where psychics predicted a future crime and LEOs arrested the perps for actions they have not yet taken.
Well I have to question? how big was the bottle fireball.
