What about ice picks? And pencils. And jack hammers. And forks. And.......................................
Of course, the criminals will obey any knife ban. Sure they will.
What about Muslims?
Inevitably people would make spears, sharpen sticks, bows and arrows...
So, the only solution? Kill the people that you don’t like to keep the people you do like SAFE.
“’Historically we needed a point on the end of our knife to pick up food because forks weren’t invented. Now we only need the point to open packets when we can’t be bothered to find the scissors,’ the letter reads.”
Never actually prepared food in a kitchen, I guess. They are either so rich they have servants, so rich they only eat in restaurants, or so lazy they only eat fast food take-outs (take-aways in the UK I guess.)
Cowardly Brits.
I am astonished at how many things are chosen for homicide due to their lethal nature.
wait …
this ISN’T Babylon Bee?
This is a joke and satire, right?
Search for the Holy Grail????
I need to bone up on my MP
Ice picks are nasty. If you get stabbed by one,you’ve got minutes at most to get to a hospital or you bleed to death on the inside.
No big rocks. Or small rocks thrown at velocities higher than the forward airspeed of an African Swallow.
And no more lifting weight. Big muscles are dangerous.
Or a pointed banana ... Cleese was a gas in that skit
Maybe ERPO knife laws would help, or a registry of knife owners.
Or let people keep their pointed knives if they get a license and take a safety course. Annually.
Nobody needs a pointy knife. In a restaurant where they serve fresh carved roast, the server uses a rounded end knife to slice the roast, proving that pointy knives are not needed.
“What about ice picks? And pencils. And jack hammers. And forks. And........”
.. bathtubs...?
People have murdered others by drowning them in bathtubs.
But we must let the crazy criminals roam free.
Better outlaw grinders and files, too.
Well, it’s from the brits so................... I know there’s joke lurking in there someplace.
