Perhaps on her planet!! ...

"Leanne Lucas fought off Southport killer Axel Rudakubana and sustained five stab wounds to her spine, head, ribs, lung and shoulder blade.

Despite this, the yoga instructor and her friend, dance teacher Heidi Liddle, were able to get several children out of the room.

She has now launched a new campaign calling for a ban on pointed kitchen knives that can be used as weapons, as she described how the attack has affected her."

How long does it take to sharpen or put a point on a knife.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be beyond the capabilities Rudaakana to do this simple task.

I may be wrong but aren't most fatal knife injuries stab wounds? if someone attacks you with slashing blows if can cause a lot of superficial damage but a 7inch kitchen knife plunged inside you is often fatal, depending on where it hits.

Not making light of the subject but you can stab someone with a pen.

I know, and scissors, but there's only so much that can be done. Why do kitchen knives need a point, i've never had to use one. I have a multi tool with a knife and it has no point on it

Someone with sense
A weapon does not have to be sharp pointed to kill
I could highlight a litany of items that can be used to inflict serious injury but obviously won't on this forum
It's about intent
It's about an evil mind

There’s a far simpler way to put an end to most of these stabbings: start actually punishing the people responsible.

And by punishment, I don’t mean a few years in a cell with access to PlayStations and take aways. I mean real consequences — 30, 40, 50 years of hard labour, the death penalty for the worst of the worst, four concrete walls, a thin blanket, bread and water.

No more cushy sentences. No more 23-hour lockdowns where they sit around playing Xbox. Turn prison into something they fear, not somewhere they treat like a break from the streets.

Make them regret ever touching a knife — let alone using one.

Problem solved.

The problem with the proposal is that almost every household or eatery has knives with points at present They can be expensive and I imagine families and chefs will be reluctant to dispose of them. I recently bought a set of Sabatier kitchen knives that I'd be reluctant to waste my investment. I can't see that many people would want to grind the point off although I'd rather do that they bin them. I do have a very sharp Rosle bread knife of the prescribed shape that my wife has been known to use to carve the Sunday joint, so the alternative shape is practical.

Harsher sentences do not have an overall effect on crime rates so we need to look at other options.

It does seem counterintuitive but they're not a deterrent.

Yes they do
When porofessional criminals are locked up , they are not put there causing grief
Ok , they can control from observation de but it's harder for them
Logic is we make sentences shorter then after we have changed their mind set so they go on to be upstanding members of society

It's them or us

It's a life career they choose

Ask them

You can sharpen a piece of household cutlery on a rock, wrap some cloth aroun one end and you have a shank, like the crims do in prisons.

I think it's more about taking the ready availability away but the determined will always find a way.

it may not be a great deterrent bit it gets them off the streets. We have gone too soft on crime.

They could do, but kitchen knives seem to be the go to weapon, so reducing the ability to cause penetrative woulds will help.

Anyone with an ounce of common sense can see that this is just another gimmick, and won't make one iota of difference to the amount of stabbings.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Problem is that approach has been shown to NOT work. They still give out massive sentences in the USA and while their murder rate has dropped slightly the last 2 years, death by gun is still amongst the worlds worst, the USa comes in 4th for having the most incarcerated per capita,

Cuba: With 794 prisoners per 100,000 residents.
Rwanda: At 620 prisoners per 100,000 residents.
Turkmenistan: With 576 prisoners per 100,000 residents.
United States: At 541 prisoners per 100,000 residents.

So locking people up for a long time may actually not help, people may still commit murder rather than be caught there and then and be locked up for 10 years, then they get caught anyway and get 40 years for murder. it's not like a lot of these criminals are highly intelligent and logical!
