The news out of the United Kingdom almost reads like a satire piece from The Onion. But as strange as it may sound to people around the world, and especially in the United States, the British police push to ban knives is no joke.

When ball point pens are outlawed, only outlaws will have ball point pens.

The PC insanity known as the UK....
We never learn from history [or the present].... If you ban something, it won't just "go away". Ask any prison guard if knives are banned in jail, then ask if they are there.

they banned sticks and stones years ago. They also banned knives and forks for people under 18 years of age.

They need to get rid of the automobile. Cars kill more folks than anything. Stop cars, save lives.

Doctors kill more than cars.

It is probably more to do with the body protection gear they wear. Didn't someone demonstrate that a sharp blade can defeat some ballistic gear

Soon they'll have metal detectors/body scanners everywhere.

That rifle on the wall of the labourer's cottage or working class flat is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there.

They have already banned those. They have signs up all over saying that you can't pick up or carry a stick or a rock over X size.
So Guns and Knives, sticks and stones. What is left?
no one will ever be hurt again. Good news everybody!

They deserve whatever they get.
I have not a shred of compassion if you choose to be stupid on purpose.
My Momma said it best: An EDUCATION is what you get when you do listen...an EXPERIENCE is what you get when you dont.
They will soon experience what happens when other people know you dont have the means to defend yourself.

People in the UK think different (brain washed a bit). I have a friend and he does not understand why we like firearms, the self defense thing is not understood or accepted. The argument of 'next thing they will ban...' does not work either. Last night I asked him about this knife thing saying I told you they would come after knives. He said good cause that's what they are using since they can't get guns... sigh.

Send your buddy this quote.
Tell him its a Ghost from the past.....speaking prophecy over his future.
And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Wouldn't make a difference. Not that they respect their government, but more so they feel they can't do much and don't worry about the govt coming after them like they do in the USi. I have known this friend for 25 years or so, they think about as different as their language is... Similar but different.
