This story has a disconnect. This story is about knife-control and wanting to jail people simply for the possession of knifes (they can't have guns you know). They illustrate the dangers of knifes. If the people were caught that made the stabbing, of course they would go to jail. But this story is advocating jail time for everyone who carries a knife.

Apparently the people being fined are NOT the ones arrested for this crime. The headline and article are quiet deceptive.

“Ummmm, they DID get away with it. That’s why they thought they could. Sounds like it is law based on ‘feelings.’”

A little bit quick to rush to judgement there, considering the incident only occurred on Monday!

Police have announced in the last few minutes that two arrests have now been made in connection with the killing, I very much doubt the culprits will ‘get away with it’.
