Britain's Cutlery Problem

Like Indianapolis, Britain is dealing with an upsurge of homicides these fine summer days.

Britain is struggling to get to grips with a surge of fatal knife attacks, which analysts say reflects a growing sense of insecurity on the country's streets.

While some say young people are increasingly carrying knives as a fashion item, others say it is simply because they are scared of being attacked and so make sure they are armed.


Outrageous!! Something has to be done, and fast.

PYY calls for the the carrying of a concealed weapon to be a crime. By outlawing of all knives (except for law enforcement), the citizens will be safer from knife violence. Anyone caught with a knife should be thoroughly punished. At very least, the government ought to require all knife owners to be registered (after taking government approved knife safety classes, or course).

Don't mock, LAS. Public schools across our nation have seen incredible success with their "no tolerance" policies towards weapons, such as knives. Many honor students have been expelled because their parents accidentally included a knife in the lunchbox to cut meat, etc., resulting in a drastic reduction of non-vegan practices and felonious bread-buttering.

You are right, Greg. I shouldn't do that. I feel ashamed of myself now.
