2 sentences

1976In People v Visarities, 220 App Div 657 ; 222 NYS 401, 403 (1927), the New York Court construed a similar statute and found that an iron bar was not a bludgeon because: "To base a conviction on mere possession, it must clearly appear that the thing possessed answers the description of one of the prohibited instruments or weapons.” California has a similar statute, and yet its Legislature found it necessary to pass a law specifically dealing with karate sticks. 3 The clear implication is that no other law adequately dealt with them.
