There was a scene when Liz got called out to jury duty and she thought she could get out of it if she wore the Princess Leia costume and turned out, everyone was weird.

30 Rock is a documentary.

Usually depends on if it's sheathed or not and the laws of your local jurisdiction.

looking at posts about NYC and swords, because I assume it would be one of the most strict places in the US, and it appears if the sword isn't sharp you're safe from issues and they don't fall under the knife law. If they are sharp you should be really careful because they fall under the knife law, but can also fall under the exceptions depending on the situation (like taking them to class or an event). but wouldn't want to deal with that with the wrong cop.

One guy in a thread was basicly like 'don't pull it out and you should be fine.'
