Have you ever talked with a European friend and heard something like this: You need gun control to stop all the shootings.
Another day and another stabbing over there. This is the story:
Five people were injured, two seriously, after a stabbing incident in Amsterdam's city center on Thursday.
Witnesses said the suspect stabbed a number of people at random on Sint Nicolaasstraat, near Dam Square.
"Among the victims are a 67-year-old woman and a 69-year-old man, both American nationals; a 26-year-old man from Poland; a 73-year-old woman from Belgium; and a 19-year-old woman from Amsterdam," Dutch police said.
The suspect was detained, police added, describing him as young man with short blonde hair.
Short blond hair? At least they told us what he looks like.
Here is something I learned from a friend in Spain. Check out these numbers from Europe:
Have we stopped believing what we see? It usually leads to a loss of sense of danger.
Two women stabbed in Vasteras, Sweden.
Four stabbed at the train station in Lyon.
Vienna's "Black Friday":
four women stabbed by an Afghan.
A man armed with two knives kills a person on the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam. He shouted "Allahu akbar."
Then a stabbing in Charlottenburg, a district of Berlin.
Another man armed with a knife tries to kill Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo in Brussels.
They were walking under the Eiffel Tower when a man stabbed them while shouting -- guess what -- "Allahu akbar." He was stabbed to death; she miraculously survived. The stabber then fled across the Seine and struck an English tourist with a hammer.

What? That must be a mistake. /s
The UK is trying to solve this problem by banning “Ninja swords”.
notice it’s always weak people on the receiving end. the weak are always at a disadvantage in a liberal world.
It was guns for them. Now it’s knives and swords. Next it will be hammers. Then it will be something else. Man is very good at figuring out how to kill other men. Eventually it will be rocks and sticks. OR, they could try to address the real problem. Nah, banning things is easier and more importantly not judgey.
It’s apparent that this knife-wielding coward chose victims who were stronger and weaker than him.
God made Man. Samuel Colt made men equal.

Fencing classes are going to be in high demand.
Alahwahoo Scotbar !

It'll eventually be hands. In some cultures today, you forfeit a hand for stealing, never mind killing.
Europe thinks the knife is the problem.
But the problem is the Muslim invasion.
They will beat Europeans to death with rubber chickens if that’s the only available weapon.
I have several items on my desk that can be used as weapons. USB cable garrotes, stapler (red, of course) bludgeons, pens and pencils to stab with. A telephone bludgeon. A laptop bludgeon. Metal bits from my cubicle that are five feet long and removable with skinny sides could be used like a blade. A weapon is something you use. It doesn't have to be traditional.
This is the response of lazy and cowardly folks. MEN know who to blame and go after. Soyboys and femnazis don’t.
We have knife control right here in America. If you don’t believe me go look at your local city, county, state regulations regarding carrying a knife.
The state wide statutes are usually located on State Police websites.
They usually differ city to city, county to county, state to local... it’s quite confusing, but they do exist.
With angle grinder I can turn a serving spoon into a great weapon. We need to ban eating utensils.
Pocket knife regulations all over the country are Byzantine
I read an interesting piece which said that switchblade bans came into effect because the legislators watched the West Side Story and went cuckoo
During the covid shutdown in Northern Ireland, the PSNI confiscated and displayed a collection of pointy sticks and table knives.
There was a time when all Englishmen had to appear before the King showing their swords, spears, armor all to show they could be called on to protect the Kingdom from invasion.
ASSIZE OF ARMS it was called. First in 1181 AD. Then several after.
Then in 1920 England got Commie scares and banned the ownership of firearms leading to the plea to the US to “PLEASE SEND A GUN TO DEFEND A BRITISH HOME!” of 1940.
Now England cannot stop a moslem invasion coming in without firing a shot.
It was the confiscation of firearms in the American Colonies that led to the Revolution of 1775.
Now the democrats are trying to do here what their British Masters back then failed to do.
A friggin’ rock or a brick. Gotta outlaw them too.
