New solution to knife crime no points on knives

Here's the full article I copy and pasted the best below it

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.
“I would urge all those with any role in relation to knives - manufacturers, shops, the police, local authorities, the government - to consider preventing the sale of long pointed knives, except in rare, defined, circumstances, and replacing such knives with rounded ends.

"It might even be that the police could organise a programme whereby the owners of kitchen knives, which have been properly and lawfully bought for culinary purposes, could be taken somewhere to be modified, with the points being ground down into rounded ends," he said.

Bloody stupid, the most potentially dangerous weapon in the one on four wheels and most of us have access to one.
Something we are seeing all over Europe and here with directives from Islamic State.

What about all the old ladies with knitting needles? Ban them I say!!

Easy solution - make everyone drive one of those Citroen Cactus things with the nicely rounded front end. Would cause much less damage to flesh and bone when driven into a crowd than an angular sporty model y'know.

Not to mention far right Fundamentalists (http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/12/1...irst-degree-murder-charge-life-in-prison.html) and misogynists (https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/04/toronto-incel-van-attack/558977/).

Although any attack is unacceptable, as a percentage of the population, they make up a very small proportion of the terror attacks.
If it was proportional, living in Europe would be like living in Iraq or Afghanistan.

we should all drive 2cv's - environmentally sound, and if you hit someone the car is a write off, not the person.

I've got a 3CV, but it's a bike not a car. Also used to have a bike called a Katana, funnily enough, but didn't use it to go round decapitating folk.

You could get some of those Ben Hurr whirling chariot spikes fitted..
