Sgian Dubh

[michael steinrok]

Some time in 1984 Uncle Ron signed the Religous Freedom Act. It states that implement of religion could not be confiscated. I'm a pagan amongst other things and my Sgian is consecrated. Cops can't touch it. The one hitch is that I have to be going to a function of some sort. So I wear the sgian all the time and the dirk stays home unless I'm going to a function.
The reality is if you treat the cops with respect they'll generally do the same.

I don't know where this will end but it won't be long before you can't carry a sharp pencil !

I thought the "Act of Proscription" was repealed in 1782.
One of the reasons that the colonies had a revolution.
