The United Kingdom indeed has been facing an uphill battle when it comes to knife attacks.

Statistics show knife crimes involving murders and robberies have risen for five straight years in England and Wales, Fox News reported. Authorities recorded 43,516 knife crime offenses between April 2018 and March 2019 — an 80 percent increase from the same period five years earlier when only 23,945 offenses were recorded, the cable network added.

They’ve gone from defeating the Spanish Armada to banning guns and (soon) knives.

"Is this some kind of joke?! Why have you chosen chicken shops? What's next, #KnifeFree watermelons?" Labor member of Parliament David Lammy tweeted.

He added to The Guardian that the Home Office "is pushing the stereotype that black people love fried chicken. This ridiculous stunt is either explicitly racist or, at best, unfathomably stupid."

They need common-sense knife control. After that's accomplished they'll need common-sense pointy things control. After that it will be common-sense blunt objects control. Etc.

I like how they've appropriated American racism stereotypes.

Like fried chicken and watermelon has ever been a black people stereotype in the UK

Does the chicken come pre-cut in these #knifefree boxes?

which added that the insides of the boxes include young people's real life stories about choosing to pursue positive activities instead of carrying knives.


“I was Praising Allah and wanting to stab a bunch of schoolchildren with my Swiss Army knife, but then a box of chicken spoke to me and decided to Chuck my knife in the bin. Then I drove a box truck through a preschool instead. Aloha snack bar.”

Thank God for our Constitution; after the Good Book...it's the best Governing ideas ever written. The Brits are done; they have lost their f'n minds. Outlaw knives...only the outlaws have knives. And they wonder why knife crimes go up. It's a field day for the heathen.

Tweeter should've asked back "Well how were folks killing each other before butter knives and bayonets? What shall we do about that??"

Coming soon to a small town near you in leftist America:

You’ll need to be 18 and show your ID to buy a baseball bat, but not to vote

Cigarettes and tobacco products will be illegal, but open drug use in public won’t be enforced or prosecuted

Christian traditional marriage views are attacked but creeps like Epstine will soon be a protected class

This is what the left wants

Just ban arms and legs. Every child has their limbs amputated at birth. Can’t use a knife with no way to wield it. White children can be sterilized at the same time.
