In the meantime it is illegal for a person under the age of 18 to purchase a set of silverware in England for fear that the knives or forks will be used inappropriately.

Well, you can never be too safe. ;-)

Other dangerous arms featured in the grim haul are nunchuks, knuckle dusters, a giant flick knife and crude planks of wood with nails hammered into them. So at this point, the prevailing wisdom for weaponry is that wood with nails are "dangerous," yet we're over here in America talking about removing defensive weapons from the hands of the law-abiding.
Liberals make me physically ill.

This is clearly a sad and pathetic joke; however, it is also the Obama administration blueprint for the future of the United States, and the United States Constitution be d*mned.

England slips voluntarily back into the stone age.
But, if just one life is saved, it is worth it. Totally.

This is satire, right? Pieces of wood with nails?!

I had to keep checking the link to make sure this wasn’t an article from The Onion.

hey hey hey... let’s don’t get too far ahead of ourselves.
First we have to learn to defend ourselves from someone wielding a banana.

I purchased an Egg McMuffin to share with my wife and asked the cashier to cut it in half. She said they didn’t have a knife because they had employees under the age of sixteen and couldn’t have them. I pressed her for a plastic knife so I could do it myself, they didn’t have those either.

There’s a saw and a pair of gardening shears — those can cause violence — to innocent bushes and trees and flower gardens. By all means collect them.
To: Sirius Lee
Note the scissors, which someone could run with, and of course the spatula and the thing that looks like a beer bottle opener...Next thing you know, ATF will be raiding Spatula City.

Lol! My teenage son has a more “fearsome arsenal” than this in his room (he's been collecting medieval arms since he was ten.)

This is how far the complete insanity has gone. They are no longer capable of rational thought. The items in that picture are tools and implements — scissors, box cutter, tree saws, etc. Really, people have lost their minds.

Looks like climbing stores will have to do background checks for anyone wanting to purchase an ice climbing pick.

I would say this is unbelieveable, except it isn’t.
I would say that the best way to stop crime in the U.K would be to castrate all male babies at birth. But, it sounds like they have already tried that
