So... Dad thumps Mom. Mom calls the cops. They show up and she wins.... A set of steak knives? Innovative! What do you win for a burglary? Or a robbery? And a murder should rate a microwave. Or a flat screen TV.  End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

 "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Don't be silly. They'll just let you trade your dangerous pointy screwdrivers for non-lethal ones that have been blunted on the end. "America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system,,,, but too early to shoot the bastards." -- Claire Wolfe "If we let things terrify us, life will not be worth living." -- Seneca the Younger, Roman Stoic philosopher | |||

For second time offenders do they wrap the whole home in bubble wrap? Strive to live your life so when you wake up in the morning and your feet hit the floor, the devil says "Oh crap, he's up." | |||

While we are talking around domestic violence, I remember a newspaper article in the local press from a while back. It would appear that a newly-wed couple were having an 'altercation' in their backyard about where to plant some kind of plants, using string and pegs, watched by the neighbour, who was giving evidence later on. The man, in sheer exasperation, smacked the gal around the face. Seemed she looked right back at him, and then panned him around the head with the tent-peg mallet she was using to drive the plant posts in. He collapsed in a heap, whereupon she kicked the ever-livin' shi*t out of him, shouting 'don't you EVER lay a hand on me again, you piece of sh*t!!!' Apparently it was worth watching. The gal even called 999 [UK's 911] for an ambulance. | |||

The cake is a lie! |

from 2009: Banning Beer Glasses in Pubs Not beer, just the glasses: The Home Office has commissioned a new design, in an attempt to stop glasses being used as weapons. Official figures show 5,500 people are attacked with glasses and bottles every year in England and Wales. https://www.schneier.com/blog/...banning_beer_gl.html *********************** * Diligentia Vis Celeritis * *********************** "Thus those skilled in war subdue the enemy's army without battle .... They conquer by strategy." - Sun Tsu - The Art of War "Fast is Fine, but Accuracy is Everything" - Wyatt Earp | |||

Wait, what? |
Therein lies the rub of the whole crazy mindset. Blaming the object for the crime. Guns, knives, bottles, tent pegs (although that one gave me a chuckle since the guy hit a woman first). Maybe we should be putting these items on trial instead of the people wielding them. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Now you know why John Cleese has moved to the Caribbean. Ok, one reason. The others include beaches, hot chicks, sun, and cheap booze. But stupid laws, too. | |||

See, that’s what happens when you ban guns; knife, screwdriver, hammer and rounder bat attacks - glad I left when England was still British... ____________________________ "Fear is a Reaction - Courage is a Decision.” - Winston Spencer Churchill NRA Life Member - Adorable Deplorable Garbage | |||

It's amazing what Jason Statham can do with a fork and spoon....the scene in 'Wild card' is just amazing. Mind you, John Wickes has a habit of killing people with a pencil, and who knows just how sharp THAT was? | |||

Mrs. DennisM, just now: "I can think of a hundred objects in this house, other than knives and guns, that I can use to kill you." And she's not particularly disposed to violence. | |||

Are golf guns legal in Britain? Not sure because they made a hole in Juan. | |||
