Complete sword ban proposed in UK - UK residents only
#31
Quote:"Detective Chief Superintendent Carnochan stated in evidence ...that:
“in 2004-05 there has been only one murder involving a sword. That is one too many, but we must put the situation in context. There have been four attempted murders and 23 serious assaults involving swords. Those are the crimes that have been reported ..."

Recent television campaigns in the UK have given the following statistics: 50 teenagers a week are killed by cars while nearly 250,000 people a year are killed or seriously injured as a result of drink driving. Yes the situation must be put in context.
