"open automatically by operation of inertia, gravity, or both"

so now the Leatherman C-series are illegal switchblades, too? what a ****ing load of ****. what the **** happened to DEMOCRACY? this will affect the entire population of the country and should therefore be subject to a public vote by the citizens of this nation. and then there's always the tired, yet unresolved, issue of exactly WHY switchblades in particular are illegal while a loaded 9mm is perfectly alright. it's NOT apples and oranges, it's an insane lapse in judgment on the part of the law-makers.
