The gun grabbers aren’t happy with banning guns anymore: they’re starting to come for other items they think are too dangerous for Americans to handle.
While conservatives often joke that liberals will start calling for knife control if they ever manage to prohibit gun ownership, it appears progressives didn’t get it. In fact, it seems New York legislators have decided to take this joke too far.
Voting 54 to 4, the state Senate passed a measure to make possession of a machete a criminal offense warranting up to a year in prison. The bill, officially titled S. 3199A, is now on it’s way to the Assembly, where it stands a good chance of passing.
Machetes are just the latest thing to be targeted by New York nanny staters. Switchblades, gravity and ballistic knives, daggers, metal and plastic knuckles and blackjacks are all classified as deadly weapons and thus heavily restricted in the state, to say nothing of the myriad regulations placed on firearms.

Along with that they need to put Cars at the top of the list, Ball bats, Butchers knives, all drugs! Because in the right combination they are deadly. Table lamps. I could kill you in a minuite with one of these table lamps. Corn knives Have a couple of those.For heaven sakes if you want someone dead you can make them that way.
Unfortunately NYC pretty much controls the state legislature. We elect Republicans in the part of NY l live, but they are outnumbered.
nextreme on the list. toothpicks
How many killings have been done by machetes?
New York is fucked. They are a bunch of pushovers that will eventually need someone to wipe their$#%&!@*asses.
Think they will ever figure it out?
Todd Brewer – yep, and so many other things as well. I’ve been there and love their selections.
I think the kid that shot up the church down south was likely a republican. Not sure. But he’s probably one of the few exceptions. I could very well be wrong also.
well the New York state assembly acts like zombies.they just want to close the loopholes most politicians are dead anyway.
Why dont we just put huge bumper pads around the city… “Sharp corners have been banned in New York today…”
