You should see the one where a radio & bike wheel were confiscated as weapons. Oof.

The Brits made the mistake of showing their hand before the riled up people over here were about ready to put crazy stuff on the ballots. Now everyone knows the endgame. Now it can be cited clearly in any "You 2nd amendment people are nutso, there is no slippery slope! We just want a couple of tiny things, for now!" argument. Forevermore. It leads to insane boxes where you need to deposit your screwdriver while walking down the avenue... literally.

Yeah, people be cray cray, but there is a rational limit, and if that's exceeded, there will be trouble. If you think a screwdriver is nothing special, then click the link above... happened just last week, and the home owner has been released without charge. As noted, people will sadly always be violent inside. Just without access to guns for the most part, you get more stabbings. True, that's a lesser of two evils scenario here, but still... there were around 215 fatal stabbings in the UK last year. That's still massively dwarfed by just the gun deaths in the US.

Well yeah it depends on the situation, there's a difference between the person carrying tools for work or personal DIY and then the police are searching a group of youths for weapons and finding sharp tools, they aren't really going to just take the knives but let the kids with other sharp tools keep those.
Not getting then Bike wheel and radio mentioned a few posts back.... |

And yeah. Generally threatening police with weapons is not a good way to remain in the land of the living.

Came pretty close to calling it a few days beforehand

As I'll say again, it's the culture more than "the guns" that are to blame. It certainly says something culturally when American teenagers in high school had the maturity to have gun clubs and carry in schools in the past, to now when London is demanding people to "give up" their knives. https://nypost.com/2018/03/31/when-t...hool-was-cool/ https://www.nationalreview.com/2013/...les-c-w-cooke/ Last edited by Refractive Reflections; 04-24-2018 at 10:16 PM. |

What next for England? Ban pots and pans? Everything can be a weapon.

Not out of reach in London, considering what a joke Sadiq Khan is.
