That is precisely what is happening in the UK. They've banned guns, crime has risen, now they want to ban knives. Next they will be banning sticks and stones.
What are they going to do about fists and boots?
Re your post 31, you may find this difficult to believe but already (as of 2000, when I was last there) in the U.K. youngsters under the age of 15 or 16 cannot buy razor blades in stores.
"Next they will be banning sticks and stones."
But only the point-ed sticks and the really sharp stones.
Amazing how the left descends into self-parody isn't it? A person could lie awake at night and not be able to invent the stuff they come up with.
