Sword in pants not a weapon, judge rules
http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/937653--sword-in-pants-not-a-weapon-judge-rules?bn=1

REGINA—A judge has ruled that there was reasonable doubt a decorative sword a Regina man stuffed down his shorts was designed to be used as a weapon.

Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Janet McMurtry made the finding in upholding a lower court’s acquittal of Teran Darcy Laplante.


No comment can come close to that headline :rofl:

17. When you have two kids who love the SpongeBob, it's hard not to pick up some Nick trivia

20. Yup. Mine are 10 & 12....
It's nonstop Wizards of Waverly, iCarly and Hannah Montana 'round here.

I'm raising them on classic rock and R&B, tho. So at least I'm spared the Bieber and Kesha when we're in the car.

9. Maybe that judge would like everyone on a plane flight to carry this "not a weapon" on board?...
Edited on Fri Feb-11-11 11:51 PM by cascadiance
... and test his view that these aren't weapons?
