That Dang Firearms Ban Shur Done Work For London

Post by Topspin »

Prime Minister: 'If you carry a knife - you will be caught, you will be prosecuted, you will be punished'Gordon Brown today defended Government plans to tackle knife crime after police chief Alf Hitchcock unveiled a blueprint for a form of national service for young people on his first day as the new crime tsar.

The Prime Minister stressed that anyone caught carrying a knife would be harshly punished after Mr Hitchcock suggested jobless teens should be sent on 'national service' to curb the rising tide of fatal stabbings.

Speaking today at his monthly press conference, Mr Brown declared: 'Let us be clear, if you carry a knife - our objective and determination is that you will be caught, you will be prosecuted, you will be punished.


'But we want to do all in our power also to prevent anyone carrying a knife in the first place. Enforcement, punishment and prevention together.'

Mr Brown, who has already rejected calls for automatic jail sentences for anyone carrying a knife, stressed that the key was a combination of a clampdown on offenders and an attempt to prevent young people turning to crime in the first place.

Anyone notice the IRONY that the Police Chef is named "AL HITCHCOCK".

Does he have the theme song accompanying him from the Alfred Hitchcock movie "Psyco"?

no sig because apparently quoting people in context is offensive to them.

Knife Registry? 100 billion dollars?

Whats next?

Martial Arts Registry?

Home Depot Registry? You can make so many weapons with what they sell there.

Sheet metal, nails, etc. Use your imagination.

Canada has gone insane.

I always carry a knife, everywhere I go.

I've never had to use it on a human. My beautiful smile does all the work. :)

Only had to shell out 10 bucks for it, 10 years ago, on 10th street, at 10 am. [ I like that line ].

If you really wanted to, you could make a knife out of a plastic yogurt cup.

You could make a knife from scratch with a rock. Stone age crap. Very effective, once you know how.

You can also make a knife with a fingernail. File it to absolute sharpness. Some women do this very well.

Homosapiens have been using knives for quite a while. This cop is preaching bullshit.

Carrying a knife is a crime? Oh really.

Then your going to be locking up every cook in this country.

You NEED a knife in the kitchen. But since its illegal in this "cops" police state [ canada ] , your fubared.

I estimate the cost for this Knife registry at 100 billion dollars.

Buy them while you still can.
