Daugherty said he is not worried about the federal government coming to get his son's cannon because he has spoken to the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as well as the National Security Agency. Though Daugherty said he is still stunned that he had to get clearance from the NSA for the archaic artillery piece, it is legal to own such a cannon because it does not use a firing pin or is breach loaded. He said the government does not consider the weapon a threat.
Modern day "come and take it" story.

“Daugherty said his son is very mature and would be able to handle the responsibility of owning a piece of artillery.”
We shall see...

Somebody relies a bit heavily on spell-check:
it is legal to own such a cannon because it does not use a firing pin or is breach loaded.
I would never, ever load a cannon through a breach! It's already ruined and trying to fire it in that condition is worse than useless, it's folly.
a canon was born.
And what did the canon say? Or how was it sung?
