Britain to Ban Teeny Knives?

Post by MajGenl.Meade »

A stabbing at a Tube station in east London is being treated as a "terrorist incident", the Met Police has said.

Police were called to reports of people being attacked at Leytonstone around 19:00 GMT on Saturday. The knifeman reportedly shouted "this is for Syria".

A man was arrested after being Tasered by police. One man suffered serious knife injuries while two others received minor injuries. Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism detectives are investigating the case. Downing Street said it was monitoring the situation closely.

The Met said the suspect was reportedly threatening other people with a knife. A witness told the BBC he saw a man holding a knife, about 3ins (7.5cm) long, standing over another man who was lying on the ground, and people running out of the Central Line station.
Glad that there are no serious injuries but we Brits just don't have the world domination thing down since the 1940s
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

When that Ghandi fellow kicked your asses out of the subcontinent it was clear that you just didn't have what it takes for world domination. You just aren't cruel enough. Racist enough, yes, brutal enough, not really.

May the Wilberforce be with you.

I heard a rumor once - probably B.S., you know - that a bunch of Ay-Rabs hijacked some planes using BOX CUTTERS which, if memory serves have blades less than 1 inch (2.54cm) long. 3" (76.2mm) is not "teeny" in my book.

England definitely needs a law prohibiting people from cutting each other with knives. Very, very rude.

People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.
