This is neither bizarre, nor lacking in common sense. It’s a basic animal welfare law, reminding people that they have an obligation to meet the needs of their animals.

You could just say you have no idea who that sqare-pooping wombat is.

That's why I always carry a meat tenderizer in my back pocket

After seeing a couple comments defending the ban. Can we all at least admit the ban is a little absurd considering the gun crimes statistics in the USA?

Here in Belgium a girl can ‘t even have pepper spray in her purse

iirc, that is because there are other, non people harming uses for a gun or knife. Brass knuckles do not have any other use other than as a melee weapon to be used against people.

It depends on the state and you can own them just not use them. Just like a knife. You can own a pocket knife but it's illegal to stab someone with it.

No federal ban on brass knuckles in the US.

Can't even have a sap in the US (which would be a lot better)

I would get into a ton of trouble in a few states in the US. I'm a registered and licensed gun owner, which I leave at home. So I carry a Ka-Bar Tanto knife, Pepper Spray and 2 stun guns ( one low, one high voltage ) in my purse and on my keychain. I'm 47, small sized, live in the Hood and unfortunately one of the statistics when it come to Assault/Violence. 1 in 3 women will become a victim of Assault in their lifetime, I've been that 1 out of 3 and I will NEVER be a victim and at someone else's mercy again. Knowing I have the means to protect myself, whether it's fighting back or buying time to run away, is the reason that I'm able to feel safe enough to leave my house.

i was a fencing champion in high school. wonder how much trouble i would be in if i walked down the street with my dueling saber, in it's scabbard on my sword belt?

Ffs WOW just wow!

Even AK's !

So stupid in so many ways. (1) Brass knuckles are legal in more states than they're not. (2) Guns and knives have legitimate uses. (3) Gun ownership is explicitly protected by the Constitution. (4) Wait.... OP has a problem with knives being legal?

Obligatory comment about New York

Good! Should be the norm every where!

They got tired of scraping it off the pavement (sidewalk in US English).

Throwing stars & nunchucks are illegal in California

Are you taking about having a rader detector? Speed control to me is cruise control on a car to control your speed while driving.

Lotta peepers in Jordan??

You don't need to own one when you have 400 quadrillion of them running around the country already.

all knives and knife blades that are designed for domestic use can be legally sold to people over the age of 16 and other types of knives may legally be sold to anyone over the age of 18 if a licence is obtained. • Skewers • Screw drivers • Scissors • Pruning saws • Plasterboard saws • Peelers are "outside the scope" of legislation. The weapons act of 1988 aims to regulate the sale of....weapons. Meaning any knives (of similar objects) advertised as being for combat or self defense are regulated.....kitchen knives and crafting/diy tools, are not.

Criminals do not care of kinder eggs are banned, they can have all the kinder eggs they want whilst good, American citizens are without kinder eggs! Sometimes all it takes is one good man with a kinder egg to step a bad man with a kinder egg!

So much for "free speech".

A lot of ground nesting birds in NZ.

All those athletes failing d**g tests because of poppyseed

Ironically, the socks are what's camouflaged in that background.

Just kick it along the ground until you get to the border.

But the whole point of a VPN is they can't track if you are using one.
