That he may be, but I'm with him on this. It's pretty logical that the aluminum bats are more dangerous.

Alternatively, they could have simply mandated certain specifications for the bats, be they wood or aluminum, to increase safety.

Whatever.

Too many kids, especially the pitchers, have been severely injured by line drives off those metal bats.

And no poet ever waxes eloquently about the poink of the bat.

Wooden bats break in little league? I would've thought it requires more power than they've got (both from the pitcher and the hitter).

Wood bats

I can't bear to watch high school or college baseball due to the aluminum. Softball, I can tolerate, since the ball is so much larger...

No, Ogie, it has nothing to do with being standard issue for a militia. ANY ban on any weapon right up to nukes would violate the PLAIN MEANING of the operative clause of the 2nd amendment (according to the smartest folks around), so of Kuci is correct.

BTW, couldnt, say, a bag of marijuana be used as a weapon?
