    Default Second Amendment Not Just For Guns

    I believe that the experts are correct.

    ".....a new argument prepared by three legal experts (argues) that the Second Amendment’s protection of “arms” includes knives as well."

    Very true. I'm sure the framers expected knives to be considered 'arms' protected by the 2A.

    How about anything that can be used as a weapon?
    Would my cast iron frying pan qualify?

    When I lived in Los Angeles, I knew of three incidents in which a person was beaten to death by another person using a cast iron frying pan.
