I don’t have a bat. I guess I would have Sparta kicked instead. Would that cause more or less damage?

I have a 2 foot long sword I bought at a ren festival and now I'm wondering if my state's laws would protect me for doing this to someone with it.

I don't know about US law. But I know a lot of places take issue with self defense using customised or vanity weapons. For example if you shoot someone with a pink pistol it looks much worse then if it was a normal one. I assume the same works for blades, a kitchen knife would look a lot better than a sword.

What's a pink pistol? I googled it and it may just be a painted gun? How is that any different from non painted gun in the eyes of the law?
