-- LONDON -- The government said on Wednesday it would ban the sale of samurai swords because the weapons had been used in a number of serious, high-profile attacks.Of course... "in the wrong hands"... so is a Toyota Corolla, or a cast-iron frying pan.
“In the wrong hands, samurai swords are dangerous weapons,” Home Office Minister Vernon Coaker said.
I can hardly wait for next week's bold... "National Length of Pipe Registry" initiative.
