Is there ever going to be some PSH when they encounter me. I just don't have no steenkin' badgers.
You can't quite know how to comply with the law, can you? You don't really know when of if we'll charge you with a crime, do you?
And thats just the way we like it!
Nannie-state busy bodies. An aluminum baseball bat worked real well for an abusive husband to kill one of my son's co-workers.
A weapon is in the eye of the holder.

W W Woodward on daughter's computer:
A machete becomes a weapon when it's use is intended to cause bodily injury in an offensive or defensive circumstance. But then, that would also hold true for a marshmallow which, by-the-way just might be classified as a machine gun by the BATFUs, as it could conceivably be converted to full automatic by the BATFUs with the application of a strand of angel-hair spaghetti.
