According to the logic of tyrants and thugs...we would have background checks for guns, knives, rocks, fists, etc at some point.

The thugs only believe in "privileges" and do not believe in any form of human natural rights. (Of course mere human should only have rights that they personally would grant them...all hail the anti-human anti-freedom thugs...)

In the UK, you must be 18 to buy a knife and it doesn't help much.




"Up to 60,000 young people, mostly male, may be stabbed and injured each year, the equivalent of more than 160 victims a day, according to a worst-case estimate for knife violence in England and Wales."


Banning guns sure helped.

Some states have age requirements on knives too.

So it would be better if guns were readily available in the UK so they could use guns instead of knives. Hey, then instead of a stab wounds that would heal they could compete with the US on murder.

No it is much better to seen large crowds mowed down by a single shooter than to have a populace that would put down such an idiot almost instantly if most people were armed....

Too bad in the real world guns are for more than "defense" and keeping the king of enland out of one's yard.
