Now that's sharp!

I've heard that nasty little term 'gun culture', but what's all this about a 'knife culture' in Scotland?

And 'knife culture' is the judge's phrase, approved by a political leader:

Today Mr McAveety welcomed Lord Menzies' comments. He said: "His comments are positive and I welcome the strong sentences he has passed down. "It reaffirms my position that we must coordinate what everyone is doing to tackle this. "The police must capture the individuals carrying and using knives and the courts must sentence them. "I'd hope other judges take the same stance as Lord Menzies."

We must capture those who carry knives! No kitchen is off limits!

But seriously, does no one see that a 'knife culture' is a 'gun culture' without guns? In other words, the weapon isn't the issue.

Dig deeper, lads.

Actually, when people say "knife culture," a lot of my friends think of *me.*

I have some fearsome knives in my kitchen. Myself, I think I'd rather be shot with a gun then stabbed with a knife. Rather neither, of course. But the gun-banners should think about that, if they ever learn to think at all.

Ban knives, and next there'll be a "rock culture", and I'm not talking about a style of music. The Bible gives a fair description of what I'm talking about. People will use any means at hand to murder or to defend themselves. Try banning rocks.
