It's not like we never criticize our own governments or like others never criticize our governments. What we don't see a lot of here is others criticizing their own governments. We could use a bit more of that, especially in this thread.

Where's Beetle?  Why hasn't he weighed in on this discussion?

 He should be here telling us how this makes perfect sense.

Why aren't they confiscating pillows?  LOTS of people have been smothered to death with pillows!

I can't seem to read the article???????????????

Keep getting 404 page not found.
It's been said we have three brains, one cobbled on top of the next. The stem is first, the reptilian brain; then the mammalian cerebellum; finally the over developed cerebral cortex.  They don't work together in awfully good harmony - hence ax murders, mobs, and socialism.

you know.. you really need to understand what has been happening here in order to understand the knife amnesty.

there have been a series of high profile violent stabbings here in a short space of time, that is why it has been introduced.

i think it is a good thing.

A domestic knife cuts only one way, and is therefore MUCH safer for use by homeowners otherwise untrained in the use of edged weapons.

An assault-knife has two edges and is FAR too dangerous to be used by the average civilian.

Ya know Furball, knives are verboten in our state prisons, but the criminals have them anyway.

So your law doesn't make any sense.
