Never bring your fists to a sword fight?

If you can draw this Samurai sword, there may be a job for you in advertising.

He was a lucky guy. In Arizona, three gentlemen in a fist fight -- what were the odds that none of the three had a sidearm they just hadn't deployed yet?
In Detroit, the headline would have read "Bystanders, off-duty cop, two INS agents, a nun, and a troop of Boy Scouts shoot man with sword. Police decline to press charges." Probably the same in Miami, except one or more of them would have been naked.

The martial arts weapon ... does not appear often on American public transportation.
Unlike, say, sharks.

A light sabre would have been neater.

I remember this incident and I found it to be extremely funny. Who carries a samurai sword in a metro train?
