Dana - please don't take this as a personal attack on you. I know it sounds harsh, but I have been using Maker's Mark tonight. This tends to let me put thoughts in very direct terms. I do respect your opinions. I was just speaking from an open and passionate heart

I wonder how many sword swallowers have died as a result of their occupation?

And how many Scotsmen have been kilt by their national dress?

As far as the numerous references to required licensure and insurance for automobiles, most of you are clueless. Operating a motor vehicle on public roads is a privilige, not a right. This is how the implied consent laws are used. Legally, you don't have to have a license or insurance to operate a motor vehicle on private property.

My firearms are on private property. I hunt on private property. Why should I have to license them? The motor vehicle laws actually set a precedent. Plus, I haven't even touched on trucks or vehicles identified for agricultural use and how they can be operated on public roads without a license.

So if you don't have a firearm or ever even owned a firearm, you don't have a dog in this hunt. I don't harangue anyone on here about their usage of marijuana. Marijuana has led to the violence of MS 13 and the Mexican drug cartels.
Doesn't matter either way _ you invoked Hitler and Stalin, by Godwin's Law you just lost the argument :P

Nah, he lost the argument the moment he began making false equivalences between swords and firearms.

At the risk of being impolite AND pedantic, average is usually defined as 70%. A grade of C in college is considered average. B is above average, A is outstanding. D is for Do you want fries with that? or Daddy better be rich.

That only applies to college grades where the kiddies get upset and whinge to mummy and daddy if their grades don't make them feel good.

50% of people are below median height/wealth/IQ etc.

Should I take this to the maths thread?

Simple: This thread is about the inherent danger of assault swords. What did you think we were talking about??

Double edged assault swords should be banned. What does the average person need with a sword that was designed for just one purpose ... slaying dragons. Swords should be limited to one sharp edge and the tip should be blunted. Only blood thirsty Black Knight wannabes need to both slash AND thrust.
