That’s ridiculous and McEnroe didn’t have any problem saying so.
Michigan is on the verge of repealing its antique ban on automatic knives. Michigan was the first state to ban switchblades. It was an early test of the power of the post-war media to push emotional, irrational, legislation. The law, which had an exemption for one-armed people, was passed in 1952.

In July, 2016, the number of concealed carry permits in the United States was over 14.5 million. The number was growing rapidly during the election year. It is now over 15 million, and likely much higher. A few states require a permit for both open and concealed carry.
Arizona is one of the most gun friendly states in America. A Constitutional carry state freely allowing open carry with no registration scheme in place.
