Why not ban knives

Pretzeluck · 2018-07-28 02:11:56

Recent amount of knife attacks in UK and Ireland should obviously warrant a ban on knives? No? Oh and trucks as well just in case. Licensing doesn't work, need a complete ban, that should stop the criminals. Knives at least should require a personal licence like firearms and should be signed off by superintendent.

Unlike something like guns, knives have other uses than just killing or wounding.

As a child in England I used to have a big sheath knife on my belt. No one cared or worried. I used it for making camps in the woods etc. The Scouts even sold big knives as did every sports shop.
