General wiffle bat discussion thread

How long do we have to live in fear of these dangerous weapons in our communities?

The defendants appeal from the following convictions for their parts in the fracas: Rachael, assault and battery and disturbing the peace; Kelly, assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon (a "wiffle ball bat")

Surely the public need to be protected! Do it for their own good! BAN THE WIFFLE BAT!

In the end--if you ban wiffle ball bats---then only criminals will have them.

Same with croquet mallets.

But it might be worth it if we save one parent's child from being wiffled! Think of the children!!!

Wiffle bats don't kill people, people kill people.  Also your more likely to kill a family member with a wiffle bat in the house then a criminal.

I support the individual right to own a Wiffle Bat, but with "Reasonable Restrictions".

I see the need for a new organization.

The NWBA

National Wiffleball Bats Association.

for the sole purpose of protecting the rights those who onlyuse wiffleball bats for the intended purposes and for protection.

 

By the way how did you stumble onto this? I know Iwould never have thought to search wiffleball bat crimes.
