(CNN)Starting this fall, adults in Texas can openly carry knives with blades
longer than 5.5 inches.

這個秋天，成年德州人將能允許攜帶超過5.5吋的利器


In fact, swords, spears, daggers, sabers, bowie knives and machetes are all
perfectly fine to tote around. Pretty much anything you can whip out in a
Dungeons and Dragons battle is fair game.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed the bill into law last month, but it doesn't go
into effect until September 1.
Under the existing law knives with blades longer than 5.5 inches could be
purchased but not carried -- with only limited exceptions.
There are some places where the new law won't apply -- including schools,
prisons, hospitals, amusement parks or places of worship. Long blades are
still banned at sports events. And you can't bring your sword into a bar,
either. The tiny colorful plastic ones that you stick on top of a cocktail,
however, are under 5.5 inches, so those are still OK.
"House Bill 1935 provides a common sense solution by prohibiting any knife
with a blade over five-and-a-half inches in certain location restricted
areas," Rep. John Frullo, the Republican representative from Lubbock who
authored the bill, told CNN in a statement.
Texas now joins Montana and Oklahoma. Both have both passed laws lifting
their bans on certain bladed weapons, including swords.

The legislation stalled in May after a man was accused of using a hunting
knife to kill one student and wound three others at the University of Texas
at Austin. Frullo postponed debate on the legislation until a week later --
but stood by his bill.
"It's not making criminals out of people who have no intention of creating
some type of criminal act," Frullo told CNN affilliate Spectrum News in
Austin at the time. Knife Rights, a national advocacy organization, supported
the legislation but said there is still a ways to go to strike "those last
remaining minor knife restrictions in Texas."
"We won't stop until Texas is as free as everyone thinks Texas is," the group
wrote in a statement on its website.

大略翻譯：

不過有些地方還是不能帶，比方說學校、監獄、醫院、遊樂場，或者宗教設施。
也不能帶進體育賽事中，還有酒吧也不行。
之前才發生的校園傷人事件並沒有影響法案。內容大意是兇手精神上有疾病，所以對
法案沒什麼影響。
