		<description>“How would people cut up their vegetables to cook with?”

You&#039;ll have to get your cooking license, including a knife safety course. Then you can legally possess one (1) chopper, the kind with a squarish blade and no point. 

From what I&#039;ve heard, there were laws almost as bad as this in China once. Hence their cooks cut everything up into bite-size cubes before cooking, because the ordinary folks couldn&#039;t bring a knife to the table. (Of course, warriors, Mandarins, and other members of the upper class were exempt, and the &quot;tong&quot; gangsters somehow never had any trouble getting their hands on weaponry.)

For myself, you&#039;ll take my steak-knife after you pry it from my cold dead hands - except it&#039;ll be in my hands only if I ran out of ammo and broke the integral bayonet on the M44 carbine...</description>

		<description>Actually yeah, I bet that pointed knife casualty number doesnt include people negligently killed by physicians wielding surgical instruments.</description>

		<description>I just wrote a small check to &lt;a href=&quot;http://kniferights.org&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;kniferights.org&lt;/a&gt;.  If they do just a little good, it&#039;s money well spent.</description>

		<description>The inmates are running the asylum.

Did the physician organization compare the number of fatalities from pointed knives with the fatalities resulting from physician malpractice?</description>

		<description>http://www.kniferights.org - Seriously folks, get over there and get signed up now.  Get in before the 10th and you might get a free pointy object.

It&#039;s new and intended to be the &#039;NRA of knives&#039;.

Remember, it&#039;s easiest to stop this crud at the start.</description>

		<description>I was trying to think of something silly &amp; witty like;
&quot;When they ban knives, only criminals will have knives.&quot;

Then my brain went (further) off into the open field and I thought;
&quot;How would people cut up their vegetables to cook with?&quot;

Then I thought;
&quot;Ronco will own the market with the &#039;dicer&#039; and &#039;vegetable chopper&#039; that keep the blades contained within their sturdy, washable plastic enclosures.&#039;....

(mebbe it is a conspiracy by Ronco to get rid of kitchen knives.)

...I think I took too much medication this morning....</description>
