New York Muggers Safe Again

New York muggers are safe again thanks to Eliot Spitzer, who's coordinated with (read threatened) Ebay to ban the sale of stun-guns to New Yorkers.

"You wouldn't want these used in either illegal activities or horseplay," Spitzer spokesman Paul Larrabee said. "Dangerous devices should not be in the hands of those unable to properly use them and you certainly don't want them used in any criminal activity."

Then again, the thugs of New York might prefer stun-guns be legal after all.
