There are many stories I heard from waaay back about baseball bats, tire knockers, etc, being identified as clubs.
Certainly a baseball bat, for instance, can do that, but it wasn't designed, made or adapted to do so unless modified in some way.
This law needs to change and I am glad the bill was introduced
Here’s one for you;There are many stories I heard from waaay back about baseball bats, tire knockers, etc, being identified as clubs. They don't meet the definition unless adapted in some way for the purpose of inflicting serious bodily injury or death by striking a person with it.

Plenty of limey's here in Texas.With as much as I like to mock the UK for their silly laws, I hope nobody tells them that in Texas it’s legal to have a loaded AR-15 in the car but you could get arrested for having a baseball bat.

In the UK, just walking with a cane is considered being in possession of a deadly weapon. You have to keep a copy of your prescription on you at all times or you're subject to arrest.With as much as I like to mock the UK for their silly laws, I hope nobody tells them that in Texas it’s legal to have a loaded AR-15 in the car but you could get arrested for having a baseball bat.
Goodfuckingchrist that reads like a Monty Python skit.In the UK, just walking with a cane is considered being in possession of a deadly weapon. You have to keep a copy of your prescription on you at all times or you're subject to arrest.
At least, that's what I've read on travel sites cautioning elderly travelers who use a cane not to visit London without paper to prove medical necessity for the cane. In practice, I'd guess it's just up to the mood of whatever policeman you encounter.

If you insist on carrying a baseball bat in your car a least include a baseball glove and ball with it. Your lawyer will thank you.
You where an iron worker?Hope they don't outlaw "spud wrenches". I've got at least two, about 18" long, maybe more. They could be very, very dangerous.
I originally moved to Houston in 1982 because a buddy of mine said the iron workers apprenticeship was opening up. He was a journeyman iron work back home. Early 80's downtown Houston was booming.I'n my younger years I worked for my father who built some (single story) shopping centers so yes I was somewhat of an iron worker crawling around on the beams "stabbin' the holes", so to speak. Nothing like the real iron workers, though.
