    I love Indiana a little more. More that I have in my adult life.

    I may have missed it but is there a link to the bill as it was passed? I haven't seen a version yet that mentions switchblade knives. I they are going to be legal (I hope they are), I'd like to start spreading the word so that our officers are aware before the law changes July 1.

    Yes I was thinking the same. Legal updates can be slow to trickle down to the road guys.
