re: #6 Aunty Entity Dragon

Ta Nehisi Coates, last night:

Worth noting that northeast cops typically use the switchblade charge on any folding knife, no matter how small or what the actual construction is. I don’t think anybody has seriously carried a switchblade since the 1970’s.

No one outside of actors in bad 1950’s movies carried a switchblade. The knives were so poorly made that they were more dangerous to the wielder than the intended victim. It’s a bullshit charge.
