"knockout game" Just another reason to be armed.

While I understand the Intent, shooting a thuglet for just approaching you may be considered bad manners in court as well as illegal. You could end up in a cell with relatives of deceased thuglet.

I wasn't even there. I was at taco bell. Can't prove shit.

Better to carry brass knuckles and mace for douches like that.

Speaking of, I recently had the opportunity to buy brass knuckles while traveling abroad. Are these 100% ilegal? I have been able to transport folding and even full-fledged steak knives in my checked bags on planes with no problem. What about brass knuckles?

I LIKE brass knuckles!

That would be illegal.. however, I suppose if you don't do anything to attract the police to yourself besides beating the brains out of some idiot you would be g2g. However, as your attorney, I advise against it.

It's amazing how brass knuckles are considered worse than a folding knife.

Would it be legal to open carry an m1917 or 18 trench knife?

They're kinda the best of both worlds.

I liked the second vid the OP posted. Never heard of the guy but he has a good message.

I got the "brass knuckles" that they classify as a paperweight at a gunshow

A close friend of mine was on a trip with his wife to the KoP mall and fell victim to this game. We went outside the mall for a smoke and 4 teenage African American upstanding citizen's approached him, one punched him in the left side of his head, leaving a large gash(from a ring) that later had to be stiched shut.

Fortunatly my friend was able to tackle the kid who punched him and hold him down until the police arrived, The rest of the kids fled. Later the kid who threw the punch ratted out the rest of his friends and they are all being charged. My friend will have a scar on his face for the rest of his life.

The "black" kid that punched him is lucky to be alive.

my thoughts as well. i would have kicked the shit right out of him. the other three would have probably gotten way with "it". however hearing about their dead friend would likely make them think twice about their current life plan.

Wait, the other three Heroes ran off and left their brave friend behind? Say it ain't so I guess at the sign of any resistance thug bravery evaporates. I could be wrong but if this good kid that was turning his life around ACCIDENTLY fell and was "CURBED" so he would be taking his meals through a straw until his new teeth came in would that be wrong? I am willing to make a small bet that this young man will end up on a police bloder report shortly or a morgue table.
