Knife crime is now a disease, says May: PM reveals ´public health´ approach to tackle violence after a hooded thug stabs four people at random and 10 others are attacked in just five days

Original Article

Knife crime must be treated like an infectious disease killing our children, Theresa May and Sajid Javid say today. Unveiling a radical shift in policy, the Prime Minister and Home Secretary will hand hospitals, schools and social services a legal duty to protect youngsters. Casualty staff and GPs will be obliged to flag up knife wounds or other suspicious injuries so children can be referred to ‘violence reduction units’.(Snip) The move comes amid intense public concern over knife crime. Ten separate stabbing incidents have been reported in the past few days, including one in which a hooded attacker knifed four victims

Comments:

Not unlike how the USA allowed measles, tuberculosis, and other previously eradicated diseases to reappear magically (mustn´t admit why), the UK actively imports carriers of the deadly Knife Crime virus.

So distressing that the knife wielder wouldn´t pause to at least disinfect the blade between stabbings! /s

Western Civ? When every man is eager for what he can get, and anxious to keep what he has, this makes men dangerous to one another. from 2nd Timothy.

Our liberals, of course, have tried to do the same here with gun crime, trying to get the CDC to call it a public health issue. Liberals lie and will do anything, repeat ANYTHING, to advance their agenda and gain power. It is LIBERALS who are a public health threat, and an existential threat to the American experiment in self government and individual liberty.

I just don’t get that Brit mentality.

One time, I started to watch “Cops,” when the show was in some city in England. It was highly aggravating to see these English cops going about without side-arms to confront all manner of dangerous situations, while dressed like school crossing guards. I turned shortly to another program. I don’t know any other country that requires its police to go without guns; not even the French,

I just don’t get that Brit mentality.

I know you were just being sarcastic #8 but what there really need is some common sense politicians. They ban guns, now they have the citizenry unable to protect themselves. They had the same problem during WWII. American citizens had to volunteer to send their private firearms over to England for them to protect themselves if the Germans invaded. Humans never seem to learn.

The real disease is not knifers. It is liberalism. It is Islam. I got into a huge argument, actual shouting, with my very liberal vegan friend (who is American!), who insisted all the London knife and acid attacks were due to drug dealers protecting their turf. I was so flabbergasted by his comment, I actually said, "Are you really that naive that you believe that bull S? He took offense to that and the party was on. But, he never backed down from his belief in that bald-faced liberal lie.

BTW- he is so desperate for a friend, he later apologized to me. Said, It is refreshing that two friends can debate such issues and still remain friends these days." How dumb is that? What is strange- He is really a very nice person at heart. He just bought into that Global Warming BS and that lets him swallow all the rest of the left´s total crap.

If not knives, then acid.

If citizens were armed, like they can be here, a knife wielder or acid thrower would find out that he couldn´t outrun a bullet...

#21, do your vegan friend a favor and point him to the falsified data used to justify the global warming computer model. Then point to the latest news that the Greenland glacier that was supposed to be shrinking, is growing. It is fine to care for the Earth, it is Christian and a responsible thing to do, but being pious about it based on lies, that is wrong in many ways.

Aides to President Biden hurried the traveling press corps away as they shouted questions at an unresponsive commander-in-chief in Washington Tuesday—his 48th day in office without holding a solo press conference. The incident occurred toward the end of a visit by Biden to W.S. Jenks & Son, a hardware store in the nation’s capital that benefited from his temporary extension for smaller businesses of the Paycheck Protection Program. After quietly watching Biden interact with store owners and employees for about 10 minutes, reporters began shouting a series of questions at him to no avail.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
