Yep.....it used to be said if you got rid of guns, there would be less murder because stabbing someone was a much more intimate act, fewer people would do it....but now...you have 6 year olds carrying knives for self defense....and 15 year olds stabbing each other to death and using knives to rape adult women........so when these kids grow up....they are going to find using guns to commit murder is not a problem....
Too bad Britain gave up their guns....their law abiding people are going to need it to defend against the horde of young male sociopaths their welfare state culture is creating...
Knife crime in London is so bad six-year-olds are now arming themselves
Children as young as six are carrying knives and 10-year-olds are arming themselves with weapons out of fear, the country’s top police officer has been told.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick heard children ‘feel naked’ without them, while some are too scared to cross the capital’s roads unarmed.
Ms Dick vowed to get to the root of knife crime as she visited a youth centre in Putney, south-west London, meeting community leaders, reformed gang members and the family of Lewis Elwin – a 20-year-old trainee electrician stabbed to death in Tooting last year.
The Commissioner promised more officers in schools and others in every ward to help build relationships with young people.
She was told community groups are ‘screaming out’ for a relationship with police, but the force is ‘not following up’.

She said: ‘On the housing estate, it’s six-year-olds that are carrying knives, because they think they won’t be stopped. You need to start there, in the primary schools – you need to tell much younger people.’
Josh Osbourne, a mentor at youth charity Carney’s Community, said 10-year-olds live in fear, saying: ‘They can’t even cross the road because they’re at odds or in a dispute with somebody else from literally the same postcode but across the road.’
Andy Smith, from social enterprise The Feel Good Bakery, told Ms Dick young people carry blades for protection, saying: ‘They say they feel naked if they haven’t got their knife with them.’
