How do you pick peppercorns off a pepper tree?

"Although it is not a true pepper (Piper), its dried berries are often sold as pink peppercorns. The seeds can be used as a spice, if used in moderation, adding a pepper-like taste to food. They are usually sold in a dry state and have a bright pink color. They are less often sold pickled in brine, where they have a dull, almost green hue." So basically, you pick the peppercorns off the tree and let them sit out until they shrivel up and then they can be ground just like black pepper.

P.S. "Be careful though, Brazilian pepper has aromatic sap that can cause skin reactions (similar to poison-ivy burns) in some sensitive people."

It should be noted that pickled pink peppercorns can be either from the pepper tree OR they can be true peppercorns. Peppercorns that have been allowed to fully ripen are also pink in hue, but they are so fragile that you usually only find them pickled or brined. These will have a very different flavor than pink peppercorns from a pepper tree (Pepper trees are either the Peruvian Schinus molle or its cousin, Schinus terebinthifolius).

Under ORS 166.270

"Possession of weapons by restricted persons:

Any person who has been convicted of a felony under the law of this state or any other state, or who has been convicted of a felony under the laws of the Government of the United States, who owns or has in the persons possession or under the persons custody or control any instrument or weapon having a blade that projects or swings into position by force of a spring or by centrifugal force or any blackjack, slungshot, sandclub, sandbag, sap glove, metal knuckles or an Electro-Muscular Disruption Technology device as defined in ORS 165.540 (Obtaining contents of communications), or who carries a dirk, dagger or stiletto, commits the crime of felon in possession of a restricted weapon."

I see no definition to include sprays, irritants, peppers, chemical agents etc. A sword or crossbow also appears to be legal. Concealable weapons that can cause death or permanent injury seem to be the main concern.
