BBC: BRIT DOCTORS TO PROPOSE "KNIFE CONTROL"

After a spate of knife attacks in Great Britain, I wrote about "KNIFE CONTROL" on 2/9/05.

I suggested this SARCASTICALLY in order to demonstrate the IDIOCY of GUN CONTROL; gun control can NEVER reduce violent crime because guns are (like all weapons) merely tools that cannot be blamed for what humans do with them, and because if a person wants to harm you - or themselves - they will find an available tool to do it.

Well, reality once again proves that socialists (statists who believe in using the power of the State to achieve what's in THEIR MIND "utopianist" social aims) know NO BOUNDS when it comes to their elitist goals (and it's why their ideology ALWAYS amounts to nothing more than an inexorable march toward tyranny). According to the BBC, doctors in Great Britain will soon be proposing that the government limit the sale of knives!

Sheesh. What do these Lefties think, that they can ban all sharp implements - and even "sticks and stones" - and that violence will cease!? This is the same illogic that led the Left to favor unilateral disarmament of the USA during the Cold War. It is bad-thinking and bad policy and must be fought.

If doctors in Great Britain wanted to seriously reduce violent crime in Great Britain they'd support mandatory carry law!
