I wouldn't put it past "Statesmen" like Morse, Fields, and Hudak to propose a bill to outlaw straw purchases of pressure cookers. Me: "I'm buying this pressure cooker as a gift for my wife". Cops: "Yeah, thats what all the straw purchasers say", as they haul me off to jail. [pileoshit]

First the gun and ammo panic and now we have to endure a pressure cooker panic?!?! I'm going to go stock up now so I can reap huge profits reselling them on housewaresbroker.com...

Guess we will have to limit the size of your pressure cooker and start charging background check fees for them.

At least it is only localized to the Boston area stores and not a nation wide company policy.

I picture Leonidas and the 300 at Thermopylae each holding a pressure cooker as Leonidas shouts "Molon Labe" (Come and take them (our pressure cookers, that is...))

The funny thing about Williams-Sonoma is they aren't removing the pressure cookers from internet sales - just the stores. Of course, if you were the next Muslim terrorist, would you really risk going into a store and being seen on camera, or just order through an internet site with no cameras? [facepalm]

In their defense no civillian needs to cook food that fast. When the constitution was written we just had Dutch ovens and a hearth.

It's their loss. Some people who need pressure cooker for cooking will buy it from somewhere else.

People don't chose to become chefs, they are born that way. Don't be a bigot.
