SOME people are bent one banning items that have no mind, have no voice to defend themselves. It is easier to speak out against something that has no voice than to demand that existing laws be enforced and make those law breakers accountable TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW.

Well, it depends on who you are if you can break the law apparently.
As evidenced by NBC's David Gregory. He asked if he could use a standard capacity magazine on TV in D.C. to show what a horribly dangerous piece of equipment it is.
The D.C. Metro Police said "nope" because it is actually a federal offense to be in possession of one of these in D.C., but he did it anyway.
The evidence was on national TV, people filed complains and reports to the D.C. Metro Police and they still haven't arrested the guy.
Care to wager what would happen to you if you did the same?

Just goes to prove what Wayne LaPierre said that the government does not enforce the current guns laws. How are new laws going to make any difference?

Missouri has just recently legalized the carry of switchblade knives, which, depending on the actual wording MAY also include gravity knives and Butterfly knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Great news SkunkHunter! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Those same switchblades were originally banned because threatening looking youth gangs in the 50s were flicking them open and closed on street corners, not because they were particularly implicated in actual violent crime.

It seems if you are part of a certain political faction you can say and do as you please. Like what Ed Rendell said: http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlic...rrific-n1487451Let me spell it out for you: He is happy that the blood of babies flowing in CT can galvanize people to follow a political agenda.A lot of evil people throughout history has not had the guts to stand up and say something quite this horrible, even in more veiled ways.

It is unfortunate that the government will not make a stance on following the existing laws on the books. Like mentioned above there are two sets of rules out there--those for us peons and those for the elitist that will never follow rules.
Skunk, that is great on the laws changing. I never understood why the laws on autos and bali's were enacted as the did nothing except to limit the number of cool knives out there. I myself would own more autos and bali's if they were legal to carry in OK but you know the deal of justifying something that just sits in the house.
