Lynk Former Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 In Australia it is illegal to have possession of guns (without proper license), knives, flick knives, daggers, butterfly knives, knuckle knives, nunchakus, knuckle-dusters, shanghais, blow guns, capsicum spray, slingshots, weighted or studded gloves, throwing stars of catapults... however you are allowed to have swords, crossbows or imitation firearms. I dunno about you but i kinda find it funny I can't carry a knife, but dammit, if i have a good reason I can walk around with a freakin sword! How kewlz that?! I wonder if this law applies to katana's... they're sharp enough to cut off limbs...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armadillopillow Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 what!? no slingshots allowed!?? that sucks! i understand every thing else .. but slingshots!!?? I ASKED AND I LEARNED: supposedly it is legal to carry a sword around with you as long as it is fully visible and it is in its sheath but if a cop spots you with it they may ask you to take it home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talldudeX Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Well it doesn't really matter what weapon you carry around, whether it be a sword or a plunger, it's still illegal to kill people with it. Law and order ruins all fun ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynk Former Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 you're lucky, Mr. Weasel is from the future and is from Tokyo (see Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 if you wanna see him ) btw... the reason why the law is like that is because the govt found that enough people had collectable and display swords and crossbows in there homes... so there we go...
