Posted on 03/30/2014 6:20:20 AM PDT by rktman

On March 29th Breitbart News sat down with KnifeRights.org founder Doug Ritter. We discussed the growing efforts to stop and/or repeal knife control and ways in which knife control and gun control intersect.

We asked Ritter, "So how do laws banning or controlling certain types of knives about?"

Your only weapon is your brain. Everything else is a tool/accessory.

I’ve been waiting for 25 yrs on fence post ban, they kill children. Shoelaces too.

HELP RID THE US OF A CHILD KILLER! OUR GOV IS DRAGGING HIS FEET. ALL DUE PROCESS HAS BEEN GIVEN THIS KILLER, 2 MENTAL EVALS, APPEALS ALL RUN OUT. 2 JURIES CONVICTED AND GAVE SAME SENTENCE. DNA PROOF. SO DO GOODERS SHUT UP! HE HAS HAD ALL HIS RIGHTS OBSERVED!

While his victim’s mom has had to suffer loss of wages, no closure, grief, and travel expenses to the hearings/appeals out of her pocket, plus pay taxes to house him and give him all his rights!

Ashley Nichole (Nikki) Read 8 yrs ols. Here is something you can do to help 8 year old. She has waited 24yrs for JUSTICE to be carried out.

TN Gov email is bill.haslam@tn.gov PHONE calls work best 615-741-2001 TN Gov . Phone calls work the best.

This CHILD RAPIST HAS RUN OUT OF ALL 20 YRS OF APPEALS, TN GOV Halsam still has NOT SET AN EXECUTION DATE OR SIGNED A DEATH WARRANT, tell him to carry out his Constitutional duty!

This is going on 20 years of appeals. DNA & confession proved he did it.

He raped, strangled to death with her OWN SHOE LACES 8 year old Ashley ‘Nicki’ Read and then threw her body in the river. Even helped hunt for what was thought to be a missing child. Justice has been denied, her mom Debbie still grieves as there is no closure allowed by the Injustice system.

My current favored blade is the karambit, which is quite popular, so there are many styles for sale. However, like guns, knives have a context. One important context is that they are complementary to guns for self defense.

But like guns, knives come a large number of styles, and you will find opinions across the board about them.

Short Piers (of lecturing twit Brit gun control fame) wouldn’t believe how painful having the fork stuck into him (not just metaphorically) would be.

A good every day carry that I prefer.

Variations on the theme...

http://www.bladeplay.com/cat--All-Items--1--1--search=Carson+M16+sf?qty_per_page=100

It uses the Carson Flipper which opens the knife with a flick of the forefinger, much easer than using your thumb.

The SF versions use two Carson Flippers resulting in a true hilt.

Every day similarly. Comes in handy for a lot of things. Hope I never need it in self defense.

"The thing is, America’s schools are unwaivering [sic] in their universal knife control, and America’s youth is becoming increasingly used to that such thing. "

During recess at my elementary school, all the boys either shot marbles or played "mumblety-peg" (which involves knife throwing!!).

AFAIK, every boy in school had and carried a knife (usually a "Case" or "Barlow") -- and played "mumblety-peg".

I don't recall a single case of anyone getting cut accidentally -- much less anyone attacking or, even, threatening anyone else with a knife.

(Does the term, "An armed society is a polite society" sound familiar?)
