Britain gave up their only means for self protection on the promise the British Bobbies would keep them safe....now, gun crime is up, knife crime and murder is up.....and violent crime is reaching every area of England and Wales......
And now, to show just how silly the British have become....a British judge wants people to file down their knives...so they can't be used to stab people to death.....
I would laugh if this wasn't so sad and tragic......
Here in the U.S...as more Americans own and carry guns...
Our gun murder rate went down 49%.
Our gun crime rate went down 75%.
Our violent crime rate went down 72%....
As we now have more than 17 million people with permits to carry guns for self defense......we aren't filing down our knives, we are going to the shooting range and learning how to protect ourselves......
Knives are too sharp and filing them down is solution to soaring violent crime, judge says
judge has proposed a nationwide programme to file down the points of kitchen knives as a solution to the country’s soaring knife crime epidemic.
Last week in his valedictory address, retiring Luton Crown Court Judge Nic Madge spoke of his concern that carrying a knife had become routine in some circles and called on the Government to ban the sale of large pointed kitchen knives.
Latest figures show stabbing deaths among teenagers and young adults have reached the highest level for eight years, and knife crime overall rose 22 per cent in 2017.
