Only assault pressure cookers will be restricted.
I noticed immediately when the mediots started using the same language they use when talking about guns.
One of the talking heads on FOX asked “Who really needs these pressure cookers anyway?”

One thing bout Pittsburgh - people vote Democrat, but there are a lot of patriotic people here who care about their fellow Americans. I think we are going to have scares all over the country, thanks to the Obama Regime’s ineptitude.
Did the husband forget to ask that a background check be run on his wife before buying it for her?
An experiment: buy two pressure cookers. See what happens.
Janet Napolitano will soon be announcing a ban on all church suppers. Turns out that high capacity pressure cookers are associated with these events.
That was yesterday. Now because of the Ricin thing, Harry Reid wants people to get a background check before they can buy rice.
“It’s not a ban on rice,” says Reid, “It’s just to keep rice out of the hands of criminals.” He promised that it would not lead to rice registration or confiscation.
The American Rice Growers Association immediately responded by saying something so profane that it is not legal for publication in 45 US states.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is now banning the sale of rice in Chicago, unless each seed is microstamped with a unique identification number, using a technology that will never be developed.
Senator Dianne Feinstein then went on a racist rant about how “rice-eating radical Republican Tea Party Asians” are responsible for much of the rice related terrorism in the United States, and how large volume cooking woks and chopsticks should also be banned.
Most MSM shows have called for a “national dialogue about rice cookers.”
Anybody know where I can get a new seal for a WWII-era National Victory pressure cooker? I’ve got one, NIB complete with all the paperwork I got at an estate sale, but it needs a new seal....

QVC is now a terrorist organization.
That pressure cooker was straw-purchased.
A pressure cooker in my kitchen would be pretty suspicious - I’m still struggling with pans with lids!
Huh? What does this story have to do with government regulation, when this is just local police being called about a suspicious package?
This whole damned country has become a social pressure cooker that is about to explode. Every day seems to bring a new controversy or outrage. Young people, it wasn’t always this bad.
psst. Onyx admitted yesterday in print she has a pressure cooker at her house. (don’t tell anyone else, okay?)
