The Second Amendment is a double-edged sword when it comes to people having knives for self-protection, according to a lawyer representing a man being prosecuted for carrying one.
“You can get a CCW (carrying a concealed weapons) permit for a gun, but you can’t get a CCW permit for a knife,” said Catherine O’Meara, court-appointed attorney for Sean Michael Linston, 31, of Detroit. “Common sense tells you a gun is much more dangerous than a knife.” |

| Not a problem in Florida. Our permit is entitled "Concealed Weapon or Firearm License", and it authorizes carrying any concealable weapon that isn't specifically prohibited by law. |

| A firearm can make a hole and not kill the person, a knife making a hole will more likely kill! |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
