Violent crime has (generally, ignoring temporaly spikes) been in decline since long before gun/knife control.
Knife crime, even with all the charges for posession added in (25% of the full figure) is going down.

Not working? You’re right, all these measures aren’t having a noticable effect, save for a couple of thousands arrests, random searches you may be subjected to, metal detectors in school streets and subway stations.
Crime is in decline as it long has been …

But the people are getting scared, kids who could never get a gun are now packing knives for self defence, which leads to the sudden spike now that schools out.
The older people are getting significantly pissed off at their government I might add, they feel as if nothing’s happening to their advantage.

Check out my blog for this sunday (13th) for a detailed report on the past weeks event.

It’s not working.

That’s because they’re not trying hard enough.

It’s just like walking through a concrete wall by banging a hole in it with your head. If it doesn’t work the first time, hit your head harder.
