Default The U.S. Government Is Trying To Take Away Your Pocket Knives!

Anyhow, back on the topic of the Customs proposals and things like
utility knives and box knives suddenly become illegal... so substitute
a fixed blade sheathed knife for work or crime and they've
accomplished nothing. First responders often have need for one hand
operation as well as those with disabilities. Thus they'd also be
hurting "legitimate" users even if they think people don't need the
functionality.


I agree completely, hence my refereences to common sense and its absence.

Nevertheless, it is a "pity" that someone could kill a security guard with
a weapon that should not have been in his possession (considering his frame
of mind). I doubt that anything Jacky Chan-like would have had that
effect.
