In my city (Buffalo, NY) they have been illegal for quite some time now. Big vendors like Pyramid Air will not ship to Buffalo. I have to have my items delivered to my folks house 1 mile away in a suburb. NY is a cesspool of stupidity. I am going to apply to take the bar exam in Tennessee and get the hell out of here.
Gotta Ban those Assault Bows! The local DemiCommies must be feeling really threatened by their constituents, so they need to disarm them before the Peasants can Revolt. Sounds like the local Central Committee needs to be removed from office come this November!
I was worried when I thought it was Southport. We used to spend a week every summer there camping. My Dad retired a few bays over off of Muscongus Bay. From his tales of that area, I just couldn’t imagine a ban on BB guns and slingshots.
The city where I used to work didn’t outlaw possession, just use of: “Dangerous and deadly weapon,”… “shall include, but not be limited to, any revolver, pistol, shotgun, rifle, or firearm which may be used for the explosion of cartridges and any air gun, B-B gun, gas-operated gun, spring gun, slingshot, hunting bow and arrow, blowgun, and any weapon or device capable of catapulting, dispelling or discharging any projectile, missile or object of any type.”
Firing a paperclip with a rubber band was questionable…

South Portland, which is about 60 miles by boat from Southport. South Portland is where I grew up (and as you know I grew up Anti-Gun)
I’m ashamed of my home town…

This evokes images of David and Goliath.
