Evil implements

EVERYONE NEEDS TO spend a day in court, if only to learn more about the implements considered to be evil in the eyes of the State. Ireland looks unfavourably upon those who carry crowbars, baseball bats and claw hammers (especially to Traveler's weddings).

Many jurisdictions around my hometown in the States have statutes against possession of "burglar's tools," or devices that could conceivably facilitate forcible entry into a locked house or motor vehicle, such as the New York State Penal Law 140.35, New Jersey's 2C:5-5b.
