According to Decai Liu’s arrest report, his roommate was in the bathroom getting ready for work when Liu burst in and started beating him with the instrument.

Time to ban them now.

First they came for the harmonica players, and I did not speak out—because I was not a harmonica player;
Then they came for the accordion players, and I did not speak out—because I was not an accordion player);
Then they came for the bag pipe players, and I did not speak out—because I was not a bag pipe player;
Then they came for the Jew's Harp players, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew's Harp player;

Then they came for me and my banjo—and there was no one left to speak out for me.


Remember friends, the banning of annoying instruments is a slippery slope...

It would blow people away!! How can something like that possibly be legal?

I thought you guys had already used up all the good jokes about it. It was starting to read like tryouts to be one of the celebrity commentators on "The Smoking Gun Presents: World's Dumbest Criminals." {rimshot}

Let's not forget those undetectable plastic harmonicas. You can sneak one right through a metal detector and annoy everyone on board a plane.
And those semi-automatic chromatic harmonicas. Hold down one button and get half-notes? Instrument of choice for guerrillas and gangsters everywhere.

Picked up this bad boy pre-ban. 64 notes. I can't get new reeds through the mail any more though. I guess I'll have to start going to shows.

You're gonna need a permit for that sir.

Clearly self-defense, Your Honor.

The Defense will establish that the injured individual had been playing the harmonica cacophonously, whereupon Mr. Liu had become alarmed, in a reasonable belief that he was in severe danger of harm from the harmonica.

This belief is understandable given that Mr. Liu's first language is not English.

Mr. Liu was simply defending himself by seizing the weapon of his attacker and using it against him. Since he did not know the proper operation of the weapon, he used it as a blunt instrument.

As for him having head-butted the officer who was trying to subdue him, he was simply bowing in respect, as is the custom in his culture.

Which game animals you are prohibited from taking with that one? Is that just a California ban or nationwide?
