isn't the UK a country of like 60 million? with 260ish knife deaths annualy. Compared to the US (330 million) that would be 1100 ish expected, instead the US has about 1600 annualy.

It is a totally unworkable idea, for sure. But honestly, you guys take stuff like this far too seriously.

Do you really think anyone here took gave that brain fart any credible mileage?

Maybe it’s a cultural thing. I dunno.

Over here a tweet like that is met with “bwahahaha what a nob.   Hey mate.  I need a charging point for me butter knife ”.

Even the MP who made the tweet said it was quite  “a shit idea”. Everyone took the piss out of him for it. All he could do is roll with it and take the roasting he got with good grace and laugh about the stupidity of it.

If you find the tweet you will see the comments that flamed him.

That is certainly a valid point, but what makes this so ironic (and so simultaneously hilarious and tragic), is that we here in the US for decades now have been using the "next they'll ban kitchen knives" comment as our go to argumentum ad absurdum.

That was the most absurd, ridiculous, unlikely, unworkable, hyperbolic conclusion our minds could possibly come to. Something no one back then thought was even remotely possible.

And yet here we are.

The real dilemma is that now we'll have to find a new one to use. Next they'll ban toothpicks?

I get what you're saying, but that's a strawman argument. He didn't actually threaten to nuke American gun owners. He was merely saying that if we resisted disarmament, that the federal government would use everything at its disposal to neutralize us. In a nutshell, he was saying, You can resist if you want to, but we're bigger and stronger and we'll win.

So in that context, yes, his threat was VERY real. He fully intends to unconstitutionally ban guns, then use military force against anyone who refuses to go along with it. There's not a single bone in his body, or anyone else in congress for that matter, who's not dead serious about that.

A UK Member of Parliament demanded strict new policies to crackdown on violent crime throughout the United Kingdom earlier this year; calling for the implementation of a “GPS tracker” in every knife sold in the country.

“Every knife sold in the UK should have a gps tracker fitted in the handle. It’s time we had a national database like we do with guns. If you’re carrying it around you had better have a bloody good explanation, obvious exemptions for fishing etc,” tweeted MP Scott Mann.
