Pointless Kitchen Knives...

[HW95J]

We can sleep soundly tonight-  grinding the tips off kitchen knives is the answer to knife crime.

The simple solutions are the best!

That is exactly why these wonderful people are promoted to Judge in order to look after us ordinary folk!

[clakk]

Can we fit breathaliser,s to car ignition switches so if your over the car wont start so drink drivers cant kill people 

[Newbie to this]

What an absolute joke!

[Scully]

I think he’ll find it is the number of people willing to stab each other which is causing ‘ a soaring loss of life.’ 

Our authorities and state seem to have a gift for blaming the tool rather than addressing the problem. I can see them now, sitting round a table....’ I know, let’s pick the easiest route of appearing to be doing something about it.’

As well as selling new child proof knives, are they going to demand all knives are "safetied-up" retrospectively? We should all grow beards too thereby making razors obsolete. Mrs W looks very fetching with legs like a young chimp. 

Do these people even think before they open their stupid mouths?

Any pictures?

[HW95J]

Apparently the picture is of him 'demonstrating how the knives could be ground down'. Both of them still have points though, so we're just having to stretch our imaginations. The real suggestion here seems to be that other people grind their knives down.

hello, interesting the last 3 lines of his speech, saying that it was his retirement do, lets hope someone with a bit more savvy will take his place.

[Dougy]

What on earth have these people got between their ears. What a complete load of twoddle.  The guy what's a slap (obviously with a blunt kipper)

[loriusgarrulus]

A round ended knife will cut just as well at the end if the end is sharpened. Anyone with access to a grindstone or even a wet stone can turn a butter knife into a lethal weapon. Taking the points off kitchen knives won't stop the scrotes from manufacturing lethal weapons, when a piece of broken glass and bit of gaffa tape can be used to kill someone.

[fse10]

Best ground all our screwdrivers down to a blunt bar then. What a anchor .

[Mice!]

I thought this was going to be about knives you have in the kitchen which are useless.

what next no screw drivers or hammers?? Muppets.

[old man]

And that, gives an indication of the idiocy of some of the judiciary?

No wonder we have become the laughing stock of the world?

Comedy Gold?

It would certainly spread violence.

How can someone attain such high office when they are so stupid they don't even know they are stupid?

 

[silver pigeon69]

I have a good idea, why don't they bring in a mandatory prison sentence for any one carrying a knife? Hold on a minute........

Because his PC liberal credentials are impeccable. You don't get to the top nowadays by showing common sense. 

[bornfree]

I've just filed the bullet tips flat on all my 243 ammo that should make it much safer.

It did not go un noticed by me walshie.... a cracker, almost spilt my amber liquid

[mel b3]

Now don't jump on me for this ,but , I believe that a lot of fatal stabbings are in domestic situations , and are " spur of the moment" type murders , having to take a knife into the garage to grind a point on to it would certainly give you time to think and calm down.I also don't think that it would stop gang related stabbings , but , it might lessen the numbers a little.

 

[old man]

Dare I say, just another pointless point of view?

I suppose it's a good thing he rounded off his careerthat way, showed very poor judgement?

[walshie]

I think they should just makes knives, scissors and screwdrivers out of soft rubber. No need to round the points off then. 

[dead eye alan]

 

 With people like this in charge of judiciary and law ect we can all sleep better at night NOT!

You can stab someone with a spoon if you push it hard enough. 

Unless he attaches a bloody huge rubber ball / knob on the end you could still be stabbed with it.
