In my state, it is a CPL (Concealed Pistol License)
It seems odd that I am allowed to carry a pistol, but apparently no other self defense weapons. no knife over three inches long no brass knuckles no numchuks For arguments sake what if - what if I wanted to carry a weapon for self defense, but was libtard about scary firearms? Doesn't that seem odd or silly? |

For arguments sake what if - what if I wanted to carry a weapon for self defense, but was libtard about scary firearms? All officially approved and from actual training films or libtard politicians, you don't need a gun, and your self-defense is: A whistle. A coin to call the po-po from pay phone. A dull scissors, but only held close to yourself in a defense posture, so an attacker with gun will be afraid of you. Piss or throw-up on yourself to make yourself unappealing to the attacker. If all else fails, hide behind an office chair. |
My FREE State pretty much allows just about anything you can carry.....
Any weapon from which a shot, readily capable of producing death or serious physical injury, may be discharged. Any knife other than an ordinary pocket knife or hunting knife. Billy, nightstick, or club. Blackjack or slapjack. Nunchaku karate sticks. Shiriken or death star. Artificial knuckles made from plastic, or other similar hard material. |

Most laws banning the carry of things like autos, brass knuckles, big fixed blade knives, etc were mostly first put on the books in the 19th and early 20th century- well before the idea of concealed carry licenses was in play.
In 1837 Alabama put a $100 transfer tax on them and decried that anyone who killed another with a "Bowie Knife" would be charged with premeditated murder. Louisiana and Virginia banned the carrying of them and Mississippi and Tennessee banned concealed carry of them all before the 1840's. Most of the sweeping laws concerning weapons and the carrying of such really flooded the South during Reconstruction. Others like brass knuckles, stilettos, and autos SEEM to have come down from the Roaring 20's. Also dont forget the NFA of 1934. Regarding the lifting of such laws, it could happen. Texas just lifted the ban on auto knives this year as well as another state. I think many of which you are naming will stay banned because something like brass knuckles is a rather hard line to sell to a politician- much less a majority of them. All of the laws seem to be based on knee jerk and hysteria. I will agree that it makes no sense you can defend yourself with a .45 but not a double edged 6" blade. |

Yet more proof that Idaho is the awesomemest. Mine says concealed weapons permit. Sometimes you just gotta conceal carry a samurai sword! Sweet, All I have to do to get around this is get an Idaho CCW as a non resident. WA recognizes them Lol that might work. I didn't think WA recognized the Idaho permit? I've heard that we are getting an enhanced permit which requires specific training and opens up more states. |
