"New law. No knives with sharp points. Only rounded ends. End of problem. /sarc"

No no no. That'll never pass. They need to start small ... like fr'instance just banning Assault Knives, High-Capacity Mag Knives, and Bump-Stock Knives.

If you can’t get an AR-15, get a knife.

Remember, Obama said thatifs someone brings a knife to a fight, you bring a gun. The British have to work that out a litter better.

Meanwhile, ban semi-automatic knives and knife sharpeners.

Cricket bats make a lousy assault weapon. It will be American made baseball bats, that was the preferred weapon when I lived in Australia even though no one even had a clue how to play baseball.

It is unknown; at this time; whether a cricket bat would work as well.

No fully automatic assault knives allowed, that’ll fix the problem. No knives with pistol grip handles or large capacity clip blades.

Somehow I doubt the people responsible for these stabbings will be very interested in Midnight Basketball, but if that’s all the Brits can come up to explain what’s going on, they deserve their fate.
