    Banning crossbows ? I miss something ? Are there a lot
    of crossbow killings in China ? Drive-bys ? Gang-related ?
    Is the proliferation of crossbows the fault of the Americans ?
    [..the David Miller thesis.]
    Has any thought been given by Beijing into registering crossbows ?

    Crossbows are in a long list of other banned items - obviously the author of the article thought it'd be funny to single out crossbows.

    Banned items include guns, ammunition, crossbows, daggers, fireworks, flammable materials, corrosive chemicals and radioactive materials.

    Restricted items include a wide assortment: musical instruments, oversized carry-on bags, suitcases, handbags, flags of countries and regions not participating either in the Olympics or Paralympics, flags more than two metres in length or one metre in height, banners, leaflets, posters and unauthorized professional videotaping equipment.

    Also restricted are knives, bats, long-handled umbrellas, long poles, animals (except for guide dogs), vehicles (except for strollers and wheelchairs), loudspeakers, radios, laser devices or wireless devices.


    Better leave you're model girlfriend at home too.

    Take your long bow instead. Better than a crossbow anyway - remember Agincourt?
