3Tomahawks are still prohibited weapons in Texas.
I'd hate to get hit with a hatchet, especially in the head.

Not to mention Mayors against illegal knives.
Clearly he was not a law abiding axe owner and we should remind ourselves that axes are seldom used in crimes.

9I am thinking that this was suicide by cop shooting. This was not a rational plan on his part.

10Watching the news last night. This was not the lead story. Ebola was the lead story. Then came the school shootings in Washington State. Then came the further investigation on the shooting in Canada. Then came hatchet man.
And there was no mention of the bystander who was shot. When I said to the spouse that there was no mention of that bystander, he said he hadn't heard of one. Of course he hadn't. NYPD is going to have to pay off this person too. I started searching online for mention of the bystander. It took going through about three or four of the top hits before I found a specific mention.
Had hatchet man gone on a spree with a gun, he would have been the lead story.

First of all, let's call it what it really is...It's not a gun buy-back, because the government never owned them. It's a gun turn in.
