Kitchen Knives Can Inflict Appalling Wounds

No kidding. Some doctors in Britain have the solution: "A&E doctors are calling for a ban on long pointed kitchen knives to reduce deaths from stabbing."

A team from West Middlesex University Hospital said violent crime is on the increase - and kitchen knives are used in as many as half of all stabbings.

They argued many assaults are committed impulsively, prompted by alcohol and drugs, and a kitchen knife often makes an all too available weapon.

Dumb shits! They admit "prompted by alcohol and drugs." Ever thought maybe that's the problem? You ass-wipes!!! Nope, ban the knife, which, most of the time, in the hands of mostly sane individuals, is used for its intended purpose that does not include killing people. These liberal clowns and their ultra-tolerance...They talk about the US and all the crime because of guns. Piffle. Can you imagine if guns were legal in Britain? With all the violent crime they have without guns, it would be a blood bath. They have a lot of cracked-out people who will commit acts of violence using whatever they have available.

When will these liberal lawmakers understand that will always be the case no matter what is banned? People will always look for the nearest available weapon, and if that is banned, they'll look for the next best thing. And that goes to make my point. It's not the guns or the knives or whatever. It comes down to people (most of the time on alcohol or other drugs), not objects, that commit crimes.
