 You are what psychiatrists call a "hoplophobe". That's a person who
 has an irrational fear of weapons. It's the hoplophobe we need to be
 concerned about, not the switchblade collector. According to Freud:
 
 "A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional
 maturity." The wish is father to the fear, i.e. the fear of weapons
 arises from an unconcious impulse or wish to do something
 socially-unacceptable with them. This is combined  with a lack of
 mature coping mechanisms to deal with these feelings. Ever notice just
 how angry and impulsive hoplophobes are."
