She produced a 12” Marine Corp fighting knife from her boot, sunk it into the bank for a hand hold...

I’m impressed. You got a real woman right there.

Back ground checks and 7 day waiting period for kitchen cutlery, soon to be required.

My first and second thought was that someone needs to get a comment on this from Chef Gordon Ramsey. My third thought would be that there should be a ‘bleep’ machine ready at hand for that interview.

My following thoughts were of the absolutely staggering number of deadly weapons I possessed, before that tragic boating accident.

My final thought is that there is, in reality, only one single deadly weapon and it is the one between the ears of most people. Also worth thinking about is the fact that self-defense experts preach about making ANYTHING A DEADLY WEAPON when the need arises!

The judge is a purblind idiot!

How about chopping off the hands of those that use knives in the commission of a crime?

They won't be able to, since there won't be any sharp edges anywhere in Great Britain.

They will have to use an angle grinder, and grind them off.

So I guess full semi-automatic electric knives are going to be “banned” also. Dang.

And "Saws-Alls" will be Right Out!

They want their subjects TOTALLY disarmed and at their mercy.

Even their alternative media still don’t get it. It’s their mindset, due to centuries of being subjects of their monarch rulers. Sad, really.

Automobiles will be next ??

I hate to see what the Brits will finally do to these islamist-pandering government aparatchiks when they have finally had enough of the betrayals.

The British really have this whole weapons-control thing well in hand. No doubt they’re the Most Civilized People on Earth.

They really need, however, to confiscate large soup ladles and all frying pas, and demand that cricket players lock up their bats when not on the field.

Then, if they’ll just enforce a ban on fountain pens, razor blades, and scissors, they can look forward to a truly peaceful society.

Oh, they’ll have to get all lawbreakers to surrender their firearms, too, of course.

Here’s the money shot, though, which ACTUALLY SOUNDS LIKE A MONTY PYTHON SKETCH! Freaking stupid, idiotic, muzlim-ass kissing, POS, fecking, liberal, jerk a$$hole!

He asked: “But why we do need eight-inch or ten-inch kitchen knives with points?
“Butchers and fishmongers do, but how often, if at all, does a domestic chef use the point of an eight-inch or ten-inch knife? Rarely, if at all.”

“Acknowledging that any blade could cause injury, the judge pointed out “slash wounds are rarely fatal.”

So, he said: “I would urge all those with any role in relation to knives - manufacturers, shops, the police, local authorities, the government - to consider preventing the sale of long pointed knives, except in rare, defined, circumstances, and replacing such knives with rounded ends.

“It might even be that the police could organise a programme whereby the owners of kitchen knives, which have been properly and lawfully bought for culinary purposes, could be taken somewhere to be modified, with the points being ground down into rounded ends,” he

The Brits have gone stark raving mad! If you are going to ban knives with points, you better ban forks with those nasty points. Ban pens and pencils too, they have points. How about nails and wooden stakes? Good God people, it’s not the instrument that is dangerous, it’s the person using it to destroy. Wake TFU!!!!!

You can sharpen the edge of your credit card and use it to slit people’s throats. They should ban credit cards.

Burt Reynolds in Sharky's Machine (1981)! Though, as I remember it, he didn't even sharpen the edge! Lesser men will have to, of course.

How about what’s-his-name regarding killing someone with a pencil. I think it was some guy in the Nixon administration.

Yeah, G. Gordon Liddy.
