When crossbows are outlawed, only outlaws will have crossbows
Liberal legislators across the fruited plain looked at this Canadian case and immediately began drafting anti-crossbow legislation, saying, “The Founding Fathers never anticipated these weapons of mass destruction.”
This story has potential for the Second Amendment to run right smack dab into the middle of the fourteenth century. The Associated Press has the details:
A Canadian man was charged with first-degree murder Friday for fatally shooting his father in the back with a crossbow in a Toronto library as shocked mothers and children watched.
Forsooth, verily, Zhou Fang hath dispatcheth his father
Zhou Fang, 24, appeared in court to face the murder charge a day after Si Cheng, 52, was killed in the library about an hour after a nearby school let out for the day. The judge ordered that Fang be held without bail.
Toronto police Const. Tony Vella said Cheng was pronounced dead at the scene and Fang was arrested later Thursday in a Toronto suburb.
“The use of a crossbow is definitely a unique case in Toronto,” said Vella. “You hear about guns, you hear about knives being used, but you definitely don’t hear about a crossbow.”
