London bans “weapons of war”
Glocktalk ^ | April 9,2019

Posted on 04/08/2018 3:33:43 PM PDT by Hojczyk

war might he be referring to?

Knives.

And, acid.

“An epidemic of stabbings and acid attacks in London has gotten so bad that London mayor Sadiq Khan is announcing broad new "knife control" policies designed to keep these weapons of war out of the hands of Londoners looking to cause others harm.”

The mayor further tweeted:

“No excuses: there is never a reason to carry a knife. Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law.”

“Never a reason to carry a knife...”

He’s probably right. If you dared to use one to defend yourself, you would be looking at charges.

The current laws are pretty strict:

A non locking 3” blade seems to be legal to carry. But, that’s about it.

So when all of the knifes are confiscated how are they going to cook and eat?

It all started with “common sense” gun control laws. It will end with idiocy and the death of a nation.

So if a few of us walked around in out tack vests with full pockets of mags and smoke grenades carrying a Siaga 308 and a KSG or TS-12 over our shoulder would probably cause a little excitement. never mind the 12 inch K Bar strapped on my leg.

Do any of the Brits know how to knapp flint? They used to make good spear points and musket flints years ago.

Keep that head on that red neck

And keep a tool on the hip to take the head off a musloid who attacks in my vision.

All you budding historians out there, take note. England is asphyxiating on its own socialist vomit.

They will probably attack in cities. Not out in redneck country.

I live in a grandfathered parcel of private land in the Colorado Roosevelt National Forest. When I drive I often carry a car rifle. No protestors blocking the road and assaulting drivers without serious hurt to their ass.

This isn’t the kind of place such a crowd would even bother with. Those are city jungle antics. Lighten up Cletus, it won’t ever come near you. No audience!

The people of London elected a musloid mayor. They deserve to die.

I’d say that was a debacle for London. But is this any worse than Obama?

"Introducing Ms Cressida Dick, all 4'2" of her, the dick (or dickette) in charge of London police."

Probably taller:

London Mayor Sadiq Khan (left) claims to be 5'6". Ms. Dick is however, a lesbian. I don't know who the other woman in the photo is.

Irony can be pretty ironic, sometimes.

I’ve carried a knife all my post ten-year old life and my knife has never once leaped out of my pocket and stabbed anyone.

Nicked me on the finger a few times, but that’s about it.

The woman on the right is probably 5’6”...in heels.
