Is there a ban on sharp sticks too?
What about claw hammers? Are they going to have to be padded?

Have they banned cars, swimming pools and ladders yet?


GOTCHA! Even CT isn't this bad yet.... but getting close..... which is why I'm getting ready to move to a free state.

Bowie knives are banned in a lot of the South because of the Dueling Trees in New Orleans and the knife fighting that came from there and traveled up the River.

In both Mississippi and Alabama if the knife is named Bowie it is illegal to carry. No descriptions just call it a Bowie and it's illegal.

They are doing that to make it vaguer so they don't have to keep up with changing knives.

I can hear the Prosecutor say......
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is a quotation from William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet. The thought conveyed is that in changing the name of a rose to something else will not change its scent, look or essential character.

It is still a Bowie knife. Probably case law of similar knives would trump the name.
