He was arrested for possession of a dangerous weapon. Let that sink in... guns are perfectly acceptable to own, but a guillotine, a weapon that requires the victim to be captured and restrained before use, is considered a dangerous weapon. Presumably it hurts the feelings of the billionaires.

ON WHAT CHARGE? ENJOYING A NICE CROSS-COUNTRY DRIVE?

literally not a crime, are Capitol police doing Met police shit and arresting people with bandsaws and kitchen knives now? maybe he should be on the hook for that parking ticket tho, incorrectly parking is a big problem truck drivers need grains of consequences from to take seriously

How is this possibly illegal

Someone is going to stand in front a judge and make a legal argument for how you could credibly attack someone using a guillotine.

Straight up state intimidation, there's no legal grounding to arrest him, hope he sues

god forbid men have hobbies.

We got the guillotines, you better run

Hey now, where does it say it’s illegal to own and transport a guillotine? It’s a historical artifact!

decent shot he can argue it's free speech

He goes on to to say the guillotine is “strictly for self-defense purposes …"

I mean, it's as plausible as it being an offensive weapon, I guess.

The state should honestly have cheered him, though. Contrary to popular belief, the guillotine wasn't a tool of liberation, but one of state terrorism wielded against the working class.

Wish we'd, IDK, start using the pitchfork as a symbol instead, or something. Or maybe a hammer and some different piece of farm equipment.

Mama mia it's for slicing the Mortadella.

Professor Gill O. Tyne was researching advances in blade sharpening when a freak accident transformed him into...

THE HUMAN GUILLOTINE

With a thought, any part of his body becomes razor sharp, capable of slicing through any material

He runs a bagel shop, because most other application of this power holds immoral qualities!

US Capitol Police said Tuesday it arrested a man with a guillotine in the bed of his pickup truck near the Supreme Court.

Must. Not... You. Know. The. Thing.

dudes rock

I bet nobody in the DPRK has ever been arrested for this
