Hoplophobia-A Real Life Example

[whalerman]

I was in an antique shop the other day, and asked them if they had any pocket knives. They said "they didnt' allow anything like that in their shop" as "you never know". I couldn't let it rest. I asked if they had any old baseball bats, as they have become collectable of late. She said sure, in the barrel in the corner. I couldn't resist explaining to her how much more dangerous baseball bats were than pocket knives. She seemed angry to hear it. Later on I found three old billy clubs. I told her these should be kept behind the counter. Fools. But they had no pocket knives. If they had some I'm sure I would have lost control of myself.
