Hacking a Trail Through the Garden State

The New Jersey machete decision is important because it rejects a “spontaneity” requirement for arming yourself at home (the state’s theory that you could pick up a weapon against an imminent attack, but you can’t come to the door with the weapon just in case). But it’s also important because it reaffirms that the Second Amendment protects not just guns but other weapons as well. [More]
Some trough feeder actually wrote that door prohibition into the law, and a majority voted for it? And a majority of "the people" voted these leeches into power?

As for the "other weapons," this would have been a good time for Volokh to remind his readers about the NJ stun gun victory.
