Police, firefighters and paramedics were called to Kwik Fit in Whetstone, north London, this morning after reports a man had a "noxious substance" thrown at him.

A supervisor in the shop told thisislocalLondon the distressed victim repeatedly said he had been attacked with acid and that he constantly washed his face until emergency services arrived.

Police said they understand the man was approached by two suspects who threw a "noxious substance" at him before stealing his mobile phone.

Acid attacks are on the rise in London. This leaves UK authorities with two choices:

1. Arm the citizenry to deter future attacks.
2. Pass 100 convoluted and unworkable laws to restrict access to acidic products.

I wonder which one they'll choose.

Give the perp more welfare and a nicer home for being the victim of a perceived hate thought crime.

The single most STUPID word I’ve heard in the longest time. Diversity.

WTF is so good about it?

If they catch the “yoots”, the victim should be allowed to pour acid all over their bodies.

I know, I know, but one can dream.

They need to pass a high capacity acid container law as well as an assault acid ban.

There is a third:

3. Make it illegal to be a victim of an acid attack and prosecute anyone who disobeys.

Number three is the one they will choose.

And have nothing to do with muslimes.
Please note no real description of the suspects provides all the detail you need to know to figure out it was an Amish attack.

Banned guns.
Banning knives.
Obviously hasn’t stopped criminals from finding a weapon.

They looked like Londoners.

Have you been to London lately? It looks like Kabul. Describing the suspects as "Asians" pretty much whittles it down to about 90% of the population.

Shoot a sodium bicarbonate fire extinguisher intensely on the location to neutralize the acid.

They sure do. And they’d better include lemons over a certain size. No, wait. Just to be safe, ban all lemons.

The only laws they're passing in London right now are the ones that will send you to prison for describing as "Asian" the man who blinded you for life just to steal your iPhone.

I was actually thinking about something like that. A clever entrepreneur could make a fortune selling Londoners small, personal sodium bicarbonate dispensers.

But then again I guess Mayor Khan would ban those things as being insulting to immigrants.
