What if I identify as a knifeosexual and the knife in question is my pan gendered intimate partner kin. Preventing me from carrying that knife would literally invalidate my existence.

1,000 people actually 'liked' this tweet. Every time I feel enraged at the deep state for taking our rights away, I remember that there are millions of idiot civilians who WANT the rights to be taken. Thanks, public school!

I have only ever heard this claim from people who don't carry a knife. Those same people are always so grateful when I use my knife to solve a problem they face, like opening a box, or removing a tag from clothing, or just yesterday: cutting a steak sandwich in half. Arguably the most useful tool ever invented, but nope, no reason to carry one.
