An MP has been widely mocked for suggesting all knives sold in the UK have a GPS tracker fitted, and saying that fishermen could have a special exemption.
Scott Mann, the Member of Parliament for North Cornwall put his musings in a tweet, writing: "Every knife sold in the UK should have a GPS tracker fitted in the handle. It’s time we had a national database like we do with guns.
"If you’re carrying it around you had better have a bloody good explanation, obvious exemptions for fishing etc."

Dumb fucks be getting dumber each day...

Jeez that’s a bit special . Guess he got some oxygen from the comment tho , tracking politicians may
be more useful for the GP tho , so we can all avoid them ....

 

[...]

so does he also want to ban scrap metal and files?......i can make a knife pretty easily in like 10 mins......or does he expect criminals to put GPS trackers on their prison shanks?

It has never been about the knife/gun. It is about the soapbox and political exposure these guys get by pretending they care about stopping deaths. But that doesn’t get them into the limelight so they focus on guns and knives solely to promote their career, power and finically gain.

As an example, in the US: If these dickweeds politicians really cared about the people, they’d work their ass of on the secondary infection problem, or other fixable issues that kill many more times what guns and knives do on our streets.

In the United States alone, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated roughly 1.7 million hospital-associated infections, from all types of microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi combined, cause or contribute to 99,000 deaths each year.

Control will be pushed until the citizens push back.

 

[Bender]

Until they ban cars for killing people. I ain’t buying what they’re selling.

 

[FS1]

I think Politicians should be considered "in the public domain" and should wear GPS trackers. We have a right to always know where they are. That would be interesting.

Becareful that is coming. They wont ban cars, but humans from operating them.

 

[Alphatreedog]

Yeah because the Brits have fought valiantly so far . They were so courageous against the firearms bans . And they are currently models of courage against " save lives turn in your knives . " Lets not forget the off limits no patrol Sharia neighboorhoods . Man I hope that someday we can find that kind of testicular fortitude amongst our ranks . Oh our shitty food bad toothed heroes .

Screwdrivers, ice picks, spears, swords, hatchets, axes, hammers etc should also have similar tracking devices. Even a 3 foot long piece of re-bar could easily be used as a weapon...so could a sharpened stick... I forgot to add sharpened sticks to the list of weapons..(sarcasm if no one could tell).

 

[Loonhunter]

How about we ban them from using our satellites for stupid shit?

 

[Mike Casselton]

Becareful that is coming. They wont ban cars, but humans from operating them.

Reminds me of this Rush song.




Lyrics

My uncle has a country place
That no one knows about
He says it used to be a farm
Before the Motor Law
And on Sundays I elude the eyes
And hop the Turbine Freight
To far outside the Wire
Where my white-haired uncle waits
Jump to the ground
As the Turbo slows to cross the borderline
Run like the wind
As excitement shivers up and down my spine
Down in his barn
My uncle preserved for me an old machine
For fifty odd years
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream
I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime
Wind
In my hair
Shifting and drifting
Mechanical music
Adrenaline surge...
Well-weathered leather
Hot metal and oil
The scented country air
Sunlight on chrome
The blur of the landscape
Every nerve aware
Suddenly ahead of me
Across the mountainside
A gleaming alloy air car
Shoots towards me, two lanes wide
I spin around with shrieking tires
To run the deadly race
Go screaming through the valley
As another joins the chase
Drive like the wind
Straining the limits of machine and man
Laughing out loud with fear and hope
I've got a desperate plan
At the one-lane bridge
I leave the giants stranded at the riverside
Race back to the farm
To dream with my uncle at the fireside

I’m new to ELR.....
Proficient with guns in general.....
Expert level Rush fan!
A more appropriate song from that album alone would be ‘Witch Hunt’.
Better yet, ‘2112’.
I could go on and on but I just woke up and I’m grumpy and confused.

It was the first song that came to mind.
Haven't listened to them for a while, guess I need to brush up again.
I grew up listening to them and always thought that if those things came true that life would be really fucked up.
Life has gotten fucked up.

No problem. Glad I was finally an expert in something here.

It would be easier to fit all the Muzzies with a tracking GPS sensor.

Knives are not the problem!

All the skinheads back in the '80s had knives. And they never chopped up anyone. Well, except a few muzzies. Mostly, they administered a good booting. Quite fatal if you ever saw the hobnailed army surplus boots from the era.

Knives, guns, flamethrowers, bats... are not the problem. Idiots and 'tards and the mentally-ill in possession of them... are.

Cheers,

Sirhr

They need GPS to track knives don't they usually just pull them out of some poor bloke's chest ?

 

[ArmyJerry]

we need to start air dropping ARs to the north of the UK, the gov is going against the will of the people and staying in the EU... giving a big middle finger to he voters,,,, time they get armed up and do what needs doing on that shithole island... knives are the least of their worries... they need to be worried about the pitch fork and torch crowd...

AR’s and toothbrushes.

 

[ArmyJerry]

too late for tooth brushes there.

 

[Loonhunter]

It’s never too late for good oral hygiene.

No, never mind, your right.

 

[Strykervet]

Unreal.

Someone needs to do a "Crocodile Hunter" video and go snatch one of those motherfuckers out of the wild so we can all get a good look at it. I bet if you look close you'll find a zipper you can pull that'll reveal an asexual reptile. No way these things are coming from the same gene pool as the rest of us.

He looks like a fucking twat with that stupid grin.

How do these spastics get into government. Not just the UK but Australia, USA, Canada, New Zealand.
I'm sure they all talk to each other to see who is the biggest minda.

 

[acudaowner]

There are plenty of these delusional moonbats occupying government seats all over the world, some right here in our own country too.

The thing with these nutcases, is that they can literally be explained by the old physicians' words of wisdom: "What appears on the surface reflects the problems lurking within".

A pimple or a cyst on the surface of someone's skin may just be the 'tip of the iceberg', and marking a much more serious medical issue in the body. Same thing with these clowns in office. They are there because they have a big voter base that placed them there. That one narcissistic motherfucker flapping his gums on the blogosphere is merely a representation of an entire subgroup in the population, that chose him / her to represent them.

Based on these observations, since we have so many folks in office all over the world right now that are more than a few fries short of a Big Mac, it shows that the entire population is in a fucked up state. Scary, man. And bad.

 

[Pritch]

i know how lmao

the level of apathy with common populations is palpable

Aus for instance 7 bloodless coup de tat in a decade or less

this for the supposed better good stuff is getting exceptionally old,

nek minute they ban kebab sticks and sowing needles
