I've seen this today.
Man arrested after posting photo of self holding 1-year-old and BB gun

1. dumb thing to do.
2. dumb thing to take a picture of.
3. dumb thing to post on the internet.
4. dumb thing to bother the police with?

in conclusion, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.

oh, and it wasn't me.

Was he pointing the BB gun at the child?

It was repealed, but enacted in another section of the code.

Yes, should have typed past tense. I blame the stomach flu which is making me miserable and producing crimes against grammar.

It's still illegal, just under a different part of IC.

I STILL blame the stomach flu.

Is it any wonder that they call it a "rhino virus". I think not.

Sorry, man. Rhinovirus =/= stomach flu

I have personally been involved with sending people to jail/court for stealing such things as: makeup, bikini wax (two teenage guys, at that), meat stuffed into a pocket, Dark Eyes vodka and MD 20-20, crappy movies and Tide. Work a few years in grocery retail, and you will be able to say you've damn near seen it all. Not much amazes me anymore in terms of what people will steal.

Several year ago there was a homeless guy in Frankfort that drank quite a bit, very honest, non-violent guy. He would go to the local police station when the weather turned nasty, and they would put him into a cell to sleep. The jail was actually part of the station. I had several friends on the force at the time, they decided to give him a hard time one winter evening. He came to the desk and said he needed to be put in a cell. They had conspired to tell him they couldn't do it any more! He plead with them, said it was cold and snowing (they already were going to let him in but kept up teasing him). He finally gave up and went out. One of the cops was going to get him when he threw a brick through the window of the station. They put him in the cell, didn't say anything and took up a collection among themselves to pay for the window. Put him out the next day. Today he would probably spend a month in jail!

Saw on the news just today some genius in Warsaw hit a tree with his car. Police said he left the scene of the accident, but later found him hiding up in the tree he hit. Must have had too many beers in him and had to pee or somethin!

I know several people who've owned them, and they're sold openly at gen con every year, not to mention online. I've got a hunch that law isn't enforced too vigorously, though it's still on the books.

That law was passed in the 80's. I must have missed the mob of ninjas threatening civilized society.
