That’s what people like this actor doesn’t seem to understand. When someone makes up their mind they’re going to kill someone, most often they can and will find the means to do so. GB thought they’d solve their crime problem by banning guns. Criminals simply moved to edge weapons. Ban those and they’ll go to blunt objects, or simply modify other objects into edge weapons. Look no further than prisons for a perfect example of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of criminals when it comes to doing harm.

kitchen knives are perhaps 25% of the knives used in most of the terrible crimes

It's amazing that they will key in on stats like this, to support knife bans. But if you point out that immigrants commit 3x's more violent crime, they don't support immigration bans.

Ice picks will be the equivalent of tactical nukes.

His point was that a knife doesn't have to have a sharp end to cut food, and that is accurate.



I've intentionally dulled the point on several of my most used kitchen knives. Just no need for those particular knives to have a tip and keep me from getting poked when washing them.


the guy is a typical left-brain idiot though.

How about going back to his country and straightening it out by getting rid of all the muzzies.

I'm pretty sure it won't happen very much. What an idiot.

Leftists are so stupid.

You can make a lethal weapon out of a toothbrush and a lighter.

But let’s make a steak knife dull with a rounded tip because no way can you grind that to a point.

The froman Klan is full of idiots.

Another reason he could never be Bond: He failed the Bond test.

Why do people continue to listen to actors on social and political issues? Who gives a frick what some dress up pretend boy thinks? Almost all actors are dumb fricks with severe issues. Stop giving them a platform.

They are performing moneys meant for my entertainment.
