Remember when only mental patients were prohibited from possessing sharp objects? What does that tell you?

Dumb AF and utterly pointless.
Any idiot who wants to stab someone can just resharpen it on a concrete block

This is why we had a revolution in 1776. Nuff said.

BAN FINGERNAIL FILES!AND BALL POINT PENS!
AND PENCILS!
AND SCALPELS! There's no reason why doctors can't operate with butterknives! Or not at all; a burst appendix or two is a small price to pay for DIVERSITY!

Britain today, in almost every respect, reads like a not-funny version of The Onion. I know it. Remember back in the 20th century when we read 1984... We were thinking: "Britain, an oppressed colony? How far fetched that is!"

EUROPE has lost the will to survive. The UK is just part of that. They find nothing in their civilization worth passing on the future generations. They don't even see any reason to HAVE future generations!
The Decadence of Western Civilization is truly suicidal!

Yes. Our forefathers bequeathed us many PRICELESS gifts, not the lease of which were:
1. Independence from Britain2. The abolition of hereditary titles
3. The bill of rights, expressly written down and expressly including the right of free speech and the right to bear arms.

Of course all the bad guys will de-sharpen their knives too so it will be a universal ban.
Oh wait! Nope, that won’t work, I know! Let’s make a new law against hurting people with knives. Oh; already have that. I guess we just have to put everyone in a bubble and use them as batteries. Oh; the Matrix already did that too.

If it’s too dangerous to take on a plane or into a prison, why should you be allowed to walk around with it in public? The same standard should apply everywhere.
To: Drew68
Britain is dangerously stupid and the only way to protect the world from her is to blockade her back into the medieval period.
Any country that glorifies a ridiculous family of overfed inbreds and caresx nothing about the life of an innocent commoner child isn't worth one drop of American blood.
Cut ties with Britain until they get their poop in a group.

Years ago I read that flint knappers in England were still turning out tens of thousands of musket flints for the African trade. Wonder if they could knapp out a few blades for home use.
I still remember 1970, when a Tulsa antiques dealer was arrested by the BATF because he was importing “Military munitions”, musket flints.
