RE: What's going on over by you all?
I do not think you are seeing the "Big Picture" being laid out in front of you.

There are probably no more stabbing and shootings than in the past and they have been listed as "accidental incidents" rather than crimes so the reputation of the nonviolent Englishman would prevail.

When crime statistics suddenly and dramatically increase there will always be a push to control that crime by limiting the rights of the citizens. That always sounds good as long as it is the other guys' rights that are being stripped. You have to control "those people".

What new intrusive laws do they wish to pass, encouraged and allowed by the public to ensure their own "safety".

Chances are that within two weeks new laws will be proposed against knives and firearms, and they will not just affect London, but every citizen on every lane in GB.

Yes, but I would be interested to hear what you might propose doing instead?

Well, remember that you asked my opinion, so here it is.

If more laws are the answer I have a resounding solution. If someone is killed outside a pup, which seems to be where a lot of these killings happen, close the pub! If the Pub had not been there it would not have happened, correct?

If people are killed at a buss stop shut down the buss service. That will take care of that problem.

The knife is the problem, so everyone that has a knife is the problem, and since every kitchen in every house is a repository of criminal devices then EVERYONE is already a criminal just looking for someone to kill. Off with their heads!

Yes those are ridiculous responses, but so is treating people carrying their SAK discretely in their pocket as being criminals, with the knife being prima facia evidence of evil intent.

I especially noted that morons comment that "there is no good reason to carry a knife". That was rich, and the exact wording of our anti-gun activists over here.


I would propose a very simple response that would include no more draconian laws that will only be followed by the law abiding citizens and have no effect on the criminals. You are dealing with a different nation now, wake up and realize that.

Criminals break the law! That is their job, just like going to work is yours!

1. Enforce the laws that are already on the books. The criminals are already breaking the laws that exist now and should prevent their actions. They are ignoring those laws. Why would they care what laws a few terrified people pass.

2. Reinstate the 20,000 law enforcement officer positions that were cut in the past decade because they offended the sensibilities of the liberal elite, or were instituted by campaign donations from organized crime to make their life easier. That way you will have someone there to enforce the laws you already have.

3. Arm and properly train you police. If the ones you have are not trainable get others that are. The old days, when the police were social workers, are gone. You are dealing with drug lords using juvenile gangs as their private armies and international terrorists now. Unarmed police are a joke to them.

4. Reinstate the death penalty for murder and/or heinous crimes, then use it. Apply it in force to all involved in any criminal conspiracy or terrorist plot that results in a death. An act by one member implicates all members of a cell or gang equally.


Lac, I can turn out a usable machete in 15 minutes. I can make a good knife in a half hour and a shiv in 5 minutes from household materials. So can anyone else that wants too, even if they do not have an extensive workshop.

I have seen people killed using toothbrushes, ink pens and melted Styrofoam cups. Yes I have seen it with my own eyes. At the start of my career I taught in a prison educational unit. It reshaped my thought processes for life.

Knives, screwdrivers, pencils, ink pens, toothbrushes, Styrofoam cups...where does it end?

You can not regulate out of existence the edged tools that have been the base of human survival from day to day for 2 million years.

Bet now you wish you had not asked.
