One of the region's top cops has called for a ban on pointed blades so that they cannot be used as lethal weapons.

MY God!!!! Is it REALLY THAT simple!!?? We can ACTUALLY eliminate stabbings by just rounding the pointed end of a knife!!!???

I'll stop laughing long enough to note that this twit is the latest Brit in the panoply of appeasers to eliminate the ability of victims to defend themselves. It is jaw-droppingly outrageous that in Britain, victims who defend themselves against an attacker can be jailed for defending themselves.

The reason self defense is such a serious crime in Britain and in places in the USA like New York City, Baltimore, DC, Boston, etc. is that if the peasants get the idea that they can defend themselves against ordinary criminals intent on casual wealth redistribution, then they might get the idea that they can defend themselves against the biggest criminal gang of all that plunders the citizens on an unprecedented scale - the government. And we can't have that can we? The philosophy of wealth redistribution demands a defenseless population or to quote New York's upChuckie Schemer - a society where only the police and military are armed.

He explained: "You rarely get victims who are sliced to death . . . they are usually stabbed.

The good constable never heard of a Saex. A lot of people were chopped up with them way back when.
