UK Knife Crime

[ハイイロギツネ]

There are two stabbings a day in London, 600 stabbings a year and that's only the capital.

There are multiple stabbings every week in the UK.

How can they treat the knife epidemic? Capital punishment? Longer prison sentences? Curfews?

and which is why its not fun outside, i only go out at 3am, when people mostly hide in the bushes with their forks. but i would love visit england sometime, i hear evenings are spectacular in yorkshire at summer.

Allow them to easily own firearms, then there would be less stabbings...

Seriously, though - AFAIK, a lot of it is attributed to gang-like crime and the like. ie: "Hooligans" IF, it is mostly being done by young people, then one needs to look at things like employment, education, basic needs being met, socioeconomic issues, etc.

I am aware there's currently some sociopolitical stress going on, as well. For that, it's going to be up to "The People" to reduce the tension and outrage that some are causing.

Make everyone trade in their knives in exchange for swords.

That's pretty safe compare to total population in london.

"Knife to meet you," innit? Country's got social problems to work on, in my opinion.

[St✩rlight]

Why are you obsessed with UK?

i like the accent and a couplse movies but england is ofte just upsetting to watch, i think its fun in the countrysie where you can just walk around, like i dont like people in general.

I can’t find the video anymore but there was this one goofy video of a knife that pumps you up with air then you explode.

It's possible, but it wouldn't make you "explode" as any sort of practical weapon.

And, that's for the same reason that "compressed air" generators should be handled with a great deal of care and with a lot of safety involved. At the pressure they operate, that stream of air can permeate skin and cause massive "air bubbles" in one's circulatory system, leading to heart failure, strokes, embolism, death...

Never, ever, play around with high-pressure air. It is not "just air."

Reminds me the time that I put my hand on a water pressure hose. I still have the scar on my finger to this day. Surprised that it didn’t cut off my finger.
