One year later and still no common sense pressure cooker reform??
An IED device that can cause mass carnage and is in no way protected by the constitution. Yeah lets ignore the true threat and go after big bad "100 round drum clips" and scary looking semi auto weapons  Lets face it you cant hunt with a pressure cooker, you cant uphold the constitution with a pressure cooker, you cant hardly protect your family with a pressure cooker. All they are good for is cooking grandmas old stinky meat and potatoes recipe. I say we start with a registry and go from there. Sorry for the rant but this issue gets my goat.

If you outlaw pressure cookers then only outlaws will have pressure cookers, or something.

Not true it such a small minority that mean to do harm with these devices. There would not be a high enough demand to create a black market iirc.

There is no need for a high capacity pressure cooker.

I don't have a pressure cooker; I'm defenseless.

I really wasn't sure where your post was going. As soon as you mentioned a registry I felt you were merely being sarcastic.

Heartofdixie this is not a parallel to the gun debate this is like saying we are going to legalize grenade ownership.

Yeah I could see where you could think that. I am just saying something needs to be done I mean technically you could cook with a flame thrower but does that make it a good idea to have one as a household item?

I don't know anything about pressure cookers. I've always assumed they were about as harmless as a crock pot.

No comparing a pressure cooker to a crock pot is like comparing a nuclear weapon to a black cat fire cracker.

Im not saying take pressure cookers from responsible owners only that we need to have an idea of who has got them.

I don't know the difference between a crock pot and a pressure cooker and I'm proud of it.

LOL I see what you are doing here.
A KFC by my childhood home had an explosion involving a pressure cooker. Blew a hole right through the roof. They found chicken half a mile away on a golf course. True story.

Education is a powerful tool one can wield to combat ignorance and in this case man slaughter/ death.
