Banning guns is for amateur politicians

So they are trying to ban a simple folding knife like a buckknife?

I carry a knife because its not a weapon. I carry a gun because its a weapon. A knife is not a weapon its a straw shortener, thread remover and a flat head screw driver it also works as a box opener (when car keys aren't available) its a multi tool. In a pinch I suppose it could be used as a weapon if you really needed one. But I break more knifes going thru the other uses listed then I ever do useing it as a weapon. Banning the posession of a knife, because its a weapon is as crazy as it gets.

how about screwdrivers?

At the rate they are going they will be fine... As long as you can demonstrate a genuine use for having each one, register and pay a tax on each one, all of them must be over 16 inches long for flathead, 18" for philips head if they require a handle on them. And you can't use torx or allen head, because those are military/police heads and a normal person doesn't need a torx head when they only have a military use....

If you word it just right using the standard rhetoric (their to dumb to know better handbook) you can make anything look bad.

Come on now guys...really? I absolutely dislike and distrust this guy too, but I'm not buying into this stuff. tell me this thread is just for the humor aspects; right?

This is no joke--you can elect to put your head in the sand while your rights are taken away, you still have that choice. Here is the official wording from the horse's mouth (or perhaps the other end): http://www.kniferights.org/U%20S%20C...g%20Knives.pdf

I wonder what they expect someone do if they are out hiking alone and they get their hand stuck in some rocks?

I've lived in Hawaii for 6 years, and yes I can see why there doing this, specially downtown. Alot of Tourist get robbed by knife point in Waikiki. And theres still some locals (though not as many now) That still don't like Holli's on the island.

So... the problem is with the people. I can with a 100% guarantee that if you set a knife on a downtown street that no one would be robbed by the knife alone.

Fucking liberals wanting to ban shit instead of getting rid of those who commit crime and enforcing laws.

lets ban grease and cars.. those two are the cause of most deaths in this country. I swear i am about to move back to Singapore at the rate this thing going.

I'm thinking Montana. Maybe they will pass another house bill stating that all knives that a made in Montana are not subject to federal law.

In fact.... Montana needs to pass a law that Say's anything made in Montana is not subject to federal law and start making everything. :D
