Should Stiletto Heels Be Banned as Dangerous Weapon?

Woman Uses Stiletto Heel To Repeatedly Stab Boyfriend To Death

She had some truly killer heels.

A 44-year-old woman fatally stabbed her boyfriend in the head with her stiletto heels in a luxury Houston high-rise, according to Houston police.

Ana Lilia Trujillo is facing murder charges."

Perhaps we should call them “fuck you” pumps.

Clearly to keep us safe from high heels we need regulation, background checks, registration, shoe safes, heel guards, mandatory training and higher taxes. There is no constitutional right to keep and bear heels, and if there were it would be silly anyway. Soon, we can confiscate all the heels, and then the entire world will be a happy place.

We shouldn’t walk all over the rights of the people.

Are people seriously comparing sharp objects to devices that spray metal projectiles? Okay, just checking… have fun you guys.

Wake me when 10,000 Americans are stillettoed to death every year and we’ll talk.

Yes. Stilettos and kitchen utensils need to be regulated.

Not sure if dangerous is the right word, but they’ve been used to take a lot of money from me in the past.

When stiletto heels are outlawed, only outlaws will look hot.

When a five year old uses one to take his three year old sister out of the gene pool, then we’ll talk.

Hasn’t the fickle American public forgotten about gun legislation in any serious way (for the moment)? Can’t we stop making ridiculous not-so-witty analogies to gun legislation in every single thread about someone dying? At least until the next mass shooting?

You’ll have to pry them from my cold, dead, feet.

We won’t forget they tried it. They failed. This time. They will try again. We must remain vigilant.

Look at the thread title. I didn’t write it.

How about 440,000 deaths every year? Is that enough to get your attention?

Didn’t think so.

ETA: And there’s not even a pesky constitutional amendment getting in the way of solving the problem.

For some reason I keep picturing Danny Trejo in drag starring in a new series of Robert Rodriguez movies: Stiletto!. Shudder

Or Nude Nuns with Big Heels?

Quite true. Objection withdrawn. :slight_smile:

Why, just the other day someone was on the corner randomly shoving cigarettes into peoples mouths and there was nothing anyone could do about it!

Have you noticed indoor smoking is banned in just about every public place now? It got our attention and we did in fact do something about it.

And yet, women are still free to walk about in whatever footwear they so desire. Where’s the justice?

Yep, and shooting people has generally been frowned upon by the law too.
