Machete Attack Every 90 Minutes in ‘Gun-Free’ Britain

Recorded machete attacks in the UK have shot up by nearly five times in just three years, with the majority in the capital, London.

The huge number of crimes committed with the deadly, sword-like weapons means there is an average of 15 a day in the UK, or one every 90 minutes.

Figures uncovered using freedom of information requests by the Daily Mail show that police dealt with 928 crimes involving machetes in the last two months of 2017.

London saw the bulk, with 425 of the attacks. There were 99 in Greater Manchester, 77 in the West Midlands, and 29 each in Merseyside and West Yorkshire.

Well at least it isn't Londonistan since sad-eek kahn proposed and started implementing a knife ban there. Acid attacks? Gotta do something about them too. Increased background checks and stricter knife control should solve all their problems with sharp edged devices.

It’s OK. It’s the new life-in-the-big-city normal.

To think otherwise is to be an Islamophobe.

As the useless mayor of london said...it is merely the price of living in a large city. Maybe armor will come back in vogue.

Good golly, that’s a lot of slicing and dicing.

If one is a bit down and wants to be refreshed, just imagine packing heat and being set upon by a muzzie (yes, we all know the religion, do we not?) with a blade.

Of course, if we were in the U.K, we’d have to immediately transport back to the U.S. lest we be the one arrested, charged, and imprisoned. I love that country, but am afraid it is perilously close to the precipice.

The Saxon is accruing many new reasons to hate... and with extreme prejudice.

Do people really need machetes in their day to day life? Who hunts foxes with a machete? “Assault knives” must be banned.

Ain’t Diversity grand??

According to the Left, the solution to the features (not problems) of Diversity is......more Diversity. After all, any bad behavior is obviously the fault of all those evil White people.

When did machetes become so disgruntled and angry?

It seems like they have pretty good lives and should be happy most of the time barring alcohol or crazy ideologies.

I don’t get it.

Hey Brits! when a muzzie sliced a head off in broad daylight on a city street, you showed your usual British stiff upper lip and did nothing about it. This is what you get.

Banning the sale of knives by mail order won’t stop this. You know what will, but you don’t want to do it.

(Stop immigration from muzzy countries.)
