My Gawd...This isn't a joke.
Yep! Just can't have those long pointed things running around creating havoc. Do you think sterlization would work??? (Give me a break!!!)
And people. Might as well ban all pointy objects...
This is absurd. Next they'll try to ban large rocks.
Just wait until those eggheads figure out files and grindstones can be used to make blunt knives into sharp tipped ones.
They'll clamor for a law banning files too.
Would that be the large rocks you use to kill people with or the large rocks you use to sharpen your blunt knives on?
Give them back their gun rights and the knife problen will go away.
If well-balanced, high carbon stainless pointed chef's knives are outlawed, then only outlaws will have well-balanced, high carbon stainless pointed chef's knives.
need a 5 day waiting period.
ban so called "saturday night" blades
and liablity lawsuits must be filed.
Oops. Should be "probelm."
Sigh! Problem.
What about the melon baller crisis in Britain? I have several friends in the UK who have been attacked with intent to garnish.
"Shut Up! Now, how to defend yourself from a man armed with a banana..."
Would that be the large rocks you use to kill people with or the large rocks you use to sharpen your blunt knives on?
Both.
And that would certainly include the authors of this report.
The MSM is out of its mind reporting such idiocy about knives. How can they report this nonsense with a straight face? Even a small pen knife could be used to kill.
Did you happen to see the films "The Bourne Identity" and "The Bourne Supremacy?" One film showed the protagonist using a Bic pen to defend against a knife attack. In the other film, Jason Bourne used a rolled up magazine to kill an attacker. No big deal. I was taught by a CIA operative to kill with pens, pencils, magazines and newspapers when I was just a child. A magazine is a very nasty weapon in the hands of someone who knows how to use it.
And that would certainly include the authors of this report.
Was thinking the same thing when I wrote that... ;)
First they came for our guns. Then they came for our sharp, pointy objects. Next person suffocated the'll come for our pillows. And, oh yeah, our cars (CO2, ya know). Oh, and our safes in upper floors. Dang, it's becoming harder and harder to off someone in today's world.
Wooden baseball bats are next, then heavy chairs.
Finally, only rubber knives and eating utensils will be allowed.
