Satisfied that you are a fool? yes.
But my satisfaction is irrelevant.

Gee, why do you suppose they are more worried about knife crime
more than gun crime?


The UK outlawed the switchblade and gravity knife in 1959.


In 1988 possession of a pocket knife with a blade larger than 3 inches
in public became illegal.


In 1996, it became illegal to sell a razor blade to anyone under the
age of 16.


In 2007, you needed a license to be able to sell “non-domestic
knives.”


Despite all that knifepoint robberies rose by 10 percent this year and
there are some 60,000 stabbings each year. So the push is on to outlaw
long kitchen knives. Once that’s done, surely utopia will be at hand


So people in the UK must be more worried about being
stabbed than being shot. Which one would you rather
worry about?
