Surprise!

Surprise weapons ban targets bow, blow-gun use
The Blow-Gun Menace must be destroyed! I wonder if it distinguishes between "assault blow guns" and "patrol blow guns"?

Here's the agenda.

Here's the ordinance.

These are the folks with nothing better to do. They really couldn't think of a safety workaround that doesn't involve a ban?

Somehow, none of this surprises me.

  1. Actually, I am, er, *ahem* surprised, as this came out of Arizona. I would expect this crap from Philadelphia's Mayor Nutter. (So appropriate, that name!)

  2. I have a blow gun, good thing I don't live in Arizona. I think I understand why the ordinance, I mean my blow dart gun is black, so it is the black "gun" of death.

    Asinine.

  3. They'd better ban sneezing too. Sneezes shoot projectiles, which may contain deadly pathogens (bioweapons?), at up to 100 MPH. Scary!

    Why can't these pinheads understand: HARMING people or property is a legitimate area for a legal penalty, but NOTHING else is.

  4. Oh, crap. I don't own a blowgun (I'm not a gangster!) but I do have forty feet of 1/2" copper pipe in my dining room.

    I'm probably an illegal manufacturer.

  5. I used to make really effective blowguns from small PVC pipe, straight pins, and milk jugs.

  6. It's Surprise. Surprise in notorious for this type of crap. They work hard to get around the preemption laws as well. Admittedly, they have a lot of illegals, a lot of recent Mexican immigrants, and a lot of retirees from socialist centers back east. Not a real good combination.
