A misdemeanor charge of “Carrying a dangerous weapon outside a home or place of business” according to the document shown in the video

A misdemeanor? What, is there a fine?

Yea you'd figure it would just be a fine but they arrested him and held him in jail

And he's wasn't carrying the guillotine. It's too big to be carried by 1 person.

I’m sure. I seriously doubt that an operational guillotine small enough to be carried by a single person would be considered a threat to another person. possibly to a small animal.
