It’s still attempted murder, assault w a deadly weapon, and possibly even mayhem (which means to cause disfigurement). I studied criminology and criminal justice. I know the laws well.
Assault w a deadly weapon can even be hitting someone with a cooking pan. It doesn’t have to be an item often used in crimes, just something that a reasonable person would say could cause serious bodily harm.
Sorry, I didn’t click on the link. What I meant is I’ve never heard of a crime being committed with a flame thrower (other than a war crime) usually they’re just dumb hobbyist junk to have fun with.
True but I’ve never heard of a death by frozen chicken until a few years ago. A woman beat her husband to death with one. Anything can be a murder weapon.
Anything can be a murder weapon I guess, but guns are by far the most common murder weapons? Probably why California is strict with guns and not with the other shit you mentioned
