Rival gang members were caught swinging machetes as they tried to stab each other in front of commuters on a platform in London.

Video footage recorded by a passenger on a Jubilee line train at Queensbury tube station shows two people in a group of five threatening each other with the long blades.

The violence broke out at 5.30 pm on Monday and officers from British Transport Police attended the scene.

In the video, one of the group seen wearing a black jacket and grey hat aims a machete at another in the group who is also dressed all in black.

A bottle is then chucked across by somebody else involved before two of them continue lunging at one another.

In total, five were involved in the fight which happened in broad daylight but only two were seen carrying the knives in the video.

Good thing they weren’t using Ninja Swords. Those are illegal.

Machetes are still okay?

[mass55th]

Well it’s good then that Starmer just banned ninja swords.

Someone is unclear on the basic concept.

They got diversity all right. Modern and stone age.

If they are anything like the commuters on my old train, they would be placing bets on the outcome!

They’re going to do some serious time if they’re white.

Swinging Machetes would be a great name for a band!

Four days ago:
“In a further move to break the cycle of young people carrying knives and to better protect the public from knife-related crime, from 1 August, ninja swords will be banned. This will make it illegal to possess, manufacture, import or sell these deadly weapons.” Up to 6 months sentence if convicted.

I am outraged at this. They should mind their own business.

As if the British or American systems of pseudo justice are actually worth anything.
They are not.

“Three stabs are better than one. When stabbing, focus on hitting one area that will slow or stop the enemy as quickly as possible, but also perform three stabs to the same position or area....On the third strike, twist or rip out the knife to cause more damage. Go to a new area and stab three times. Stabbing three times is an old samurai teaching.”

If machetes are outlawed, only the criminals will have them.

[Angelino97]

People were listening. That's why the British media and establishment panicked and silenced him.

[Omnivore-Dan]

Rival gang members trying to kill each other. So what’s the problem? Better they kill each other than costing taxpayers for their prison time.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have machetes.

You have to admit that DRIVE-BY machete attacks take a lot more skill and timing than drive-by shootings.
