It Slices! It Dices! It's Banned!

Not satisfied with banning guns, swords, bows and slingshots, Great Britain is now moving to ban kitchen knives. Next on the list: sharp sticks and rocks with pointy bits.

The really sad part is that no one in their political leadership seems to have a clue why their crime rate is the highest in the Western world. At the rate it's climbing, it won't be long until we have to send Snake Plissken into London to retrieve the Prime Minister. Of course, much like Donald Pleasance's character in the allusory movie, he probably isn't worth saving in the first place. Hrm... On more mature consideration, let's just leave "Snake" right where he is; Mr. Russell's getting a little long in the tooth for such antics, after all.
