Seriously?
Tennessee’s legislature is pretty darn pro-gun. Unless those guns are super-soakers:
Won’t the Tennessee State University be a safer place now that toy guns are banned? Next on the list–extending your index finger forward while holding your thumb up.
On yesterday’s radio program, we interviewed State Rep. Stacey Campfield regarding a change to TSU’s campus laws that appeared before a government committee in Nashville. Campfield said that the vote to ban toy guns passed on a party line vote. According to Campfield, Republicans voted against banning toy guns…Democrats voted for.
We just voted in joint gov opps committee to allow Tennessee State University to ban water guns, cap guns or any other weapons that simulate a firearm. It passed on a party line vote.
This is what we pay you guys for?

When the supersoakers first hit the market there were rumors in Chicago of junior thugs filling them with bleach, which would make them into an effective weapon. I’m confident that there are existing laws to cover such behavior, and also that without proper maintenance the pump seals would soon fail.

If my hand is striker-fired, I don’t need to hold the thumb up.
And if I use my index and middle fingers, is that a big-bore hand or a double-barrel?
triticale: My suspicion is that those rumors were just that… rumors.
