OK, so in the US after the liberals ban our firearms, they will set up metal detectors and take our knives. Then since "the second most common method of homicide involving males is for the victim to be hit or kicked"....do they ban boots? I can just see the politician's in WA DC flying to the UK on taxpayer sponsored junkets to study this!

Hey, inquiring minds want to know!

Who knew? /s The next British slogan: Knives kill people! Eventually they’ll work their way down to the real problem: People kill people. Weapons are inanimate, the human heart is not.

Get ready to do all your cooking and cutting with these: Now when hammers become #1, I don't what the Nanny State our British cousins have built will do.

Perhaps guns will get liberals before liberals get guns.

When knives are outlawed, only outlaws will have knives.

So let’s get this straight.

UK bans guns to prevent the rare firearm murder in exchange for every increasing knife crime?

Next time you visit the UK, be prepared to eat your steak with a *spoon*.

Of course, these problems have nothing at all to do with an ever increasing fraction of UK youths (look mom, no apostrophy needed to form a plural! - Freepers, take note!) turning feral....and using whatever means at hand to inflict injury and death.

How many countries are there where “glassing” has actually become a verb in the local language?

What distresses me most about this is that while I can handle firearms safely and effectively, I’m notoriously inept and downright dangerous with sharp objects (I’m embarrassed to admit this but...). If one wanted to kill me with a knife, all he would need to do is hand it to me.
