I don’t have nunchucks (nunchakus). I do have a pair of traditional Chinese rice flails, made for flogging the husks off of harvested rice.

Nunchucks are impressive when in the hands of an expert.
If you don’t really know your Nunchucks, you can easily knock your own teeth out, or maybe break a nose.

Now do Switchblades/ auto knives and “West Side Story”...
Another ridiculous law based on preventative “do something!!!” knee jerk reactions..

And what exactly are the stats of “wide spread” “nunchucks crimes” that validated the bans in the first place?

That ruling does remind us of an important fact.

The Second Amendment is about more than guns. It is about arms.

IMHO nunchuks are more dangerous to the idiots using them than to anyone else!

Always LOVED when some fool in high school would show me his ‘skills’ only to whack himself in the face!

It's also enormously stupid.

I remember nunchucks becoming popular in the 60's or 70's when Bruce Lee movies seemed to have grabbed the youthful male (I may have my years wrong, but not my opinion)

I remember NEVER hearing of youths gone wild using them.

I believe the martial arts came about when the ancient Japanese invaders of Okinawa forced the people to give up their spears, swords and arrows.

Being helpless, they found ways to use common tools as weapons, this being the rice flail.

Hard to believe a common farming tool would strike terror into the hearts of NY authoritarians.

They seem to want us to go back to defending ourselves with those great old English farm weapons, the wooden pitch fork, hay rake, and garden hoe.

That ruling was made back in 1974, the year I graduated High School. Guess what my Cousin Jesse got me as a graduation gift? That’s right, a big bottle of Hai Karate Cologne, spray bottle. The TV commercials sold it as though it was an
Aphrodisiac. Sum Total; It was not .

“over fears that youth inspired by martial arts movies would create widespread mayhem is unconstitutional “

Bans on firearms using fears over widespread mayhem are also similarly unconstitutional.

People who play with nunchucks are more likely to hurt themselves than anybody else!..................

Now there’s an important issue!

How many chucks could a nunchuk chuck if a nonchuk could chuck chucks?

This is essentially 2 sticks and a rope/chain.

Outlawing sticks and ropes is almost as ludicrous as outlawing a plant

I am going to go and make a set of nunchucks
out of two bump stocks.

That should tie our entire Federal court system in knots for the next thirteen years.
