There was a guy here in an Illinois county a few months ago,who was a convicted felon,,, who had a court appearance on an unrelated matter… and of course you have to go through the metal detector before entering… he put his stuff in the basket and upon seeing the taser,,, he was arrested for possession of it. I didn’t know a taser could be considered a deadly weapon.. I didn’t learn a few years back that it’s a flipping felony to even possess a sling shot in the state of New Jersey.

Now We see it written "No dangerous devices" That may include things like bows and tasers, it's overly broad and sets people up for failure. I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, & I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve
