I think soiled baby diapers will be next. No one should die the death of asphyxiation from a baby diaper.

Those guys from Monty Python had their homeland pegged, four decades ago. Sounds like it’s gotten much, much worse since then.

I live in England, and I read somewhere recently that they are planning on banning citrus fruit for health and safety reasons.

Common sense tells me you must be kidding. Experience tells my you're probably not.

Registering then, confiscating all screwdrivers not far down the road.

Two men were today found guilty of the murder of a father of two who was stabbed through the head with a screwdriver as he interrupted a car theft outside his home.

The first murder was committed at the dawn of antiquity by Cain, a farmer. He killed his brother Abel, a shepherd. Guns did not exist and if it was pre-iron or bronze age, swords and knives were non-existent as well. So, by the context, we can infer that Cain killed Abel with a Big rock, or perhaps a flint chip, or his bare hands.

Abel was just as dead as if he were shot with an AR-15.

Humans will do what humans will do.

People are killed by alcohol too - that should be banned. And soon - especially wines that liberal elites like to drink. Also death by car is common - cars should be banned. And air travel - when a plane goes down - hundreds die at the same time... the essence of tragedy for some...

Logan berries aren’t the problem - it’s the hands ... all hands should be banned - they ARE the weapon that holds all the rest of the weapons. If hands are amputated, there will be less violence.

But why stop there?

It’s the brain that controls the hands that control the weapons. If brains were removed they’d be no violence... Finally, we’ve got the answer liberals have been looking for...

As I posted in the earlier thread, I can’t stab anyone with my kitchen knife, but I can dismember someone with my Japanese cleaver, which I use for everything!

In our town, a woman went to the wedding of her ex-boyfriend. She grabbed the knife which had been used to cut the cake, and stabbed him in the heart. He lasted till an ambulance got there. In court, she claimed he had been abusive to her. 2005 - and is aready out on parole. Ban wedding cake knives.

Don’t forget about reflexive violence!

Spinal cords will also have to be banned.

Forks have sharp, pointy ends and spoons are almost like a rounded handle with a stabbing end if you hold them by the business end - ergo the Brits will soon be eating with their hands.

Don't believe everything you hear in the press, here.
Much of it is pure BS, launched for effect.

Kitchen knives are not banned, normal knives are limited to 2 or 3 inches.
Swords were banned, then in true Monty python style ,unbanned: ‘if the production process is by a genuine sword manufacturer’.
Antique blades and Swords must have their sharp edge removed.

You couldn’t make this stuff up.
