Ma's and Pa's may use a pitchfork HOWEVER an issue arises when pitchforks are used within the confines of the home.
Pitchforks become unwieldy in tight quarters and pose liability issues for Ma's and Pa's.

If you git the varmit in the backside with the forks as he scrams out the window, you are fine from a legal standpoint.

However, if during the melee you strike the varmit with the HANDLE of the pitchfork you may be held liable for maintaining an unsafe environment.

To mitigate this risks, Ma's and Pa's must use a specially prepare pitchfork where the shaft\handle are covered in state approved padding.
