Why is it that some of you think that when the SAME proposal gets dropped in front of the SAME committee every year, and is decimated the SAME way every time, that suddenly, something is going to change this time?

These politicians put this stuff in every time because they have a buddy/pastor/businesspartner/whatever that asks them too every time. They put it in, it gets tossed, everyone's happy.

They are not going to get rid of one handed opening knives.

I've watched this SAME basic thing go on the table at various state and federal levels for 20 YEARS, and guess what...the laws haven't changed. Pretty much the only knife laws that I've seen changed are the FAA rules on planes. Everything else is state-level law (there's only one federal law that I know of), and they only change in respect to specific cases, as laws should (is a sheepsfoot knife a "dirk" under Cali law, etc).
