It's not. The police go around troubled estates and do a "sweep" which means looking in bushes and in bins then taking anything that "might" be used as a weapon somehow and bragging about it on twitter. Once in a blue moon they'll find an actual knife or a knuckle duster, once upon a time they found an old WW1 service revolver so rusted over it was unsuable (no ammo found) and saved many lifes.

Come on. Those are butter knives. I feel like you're appealing to my paranoia.

No, that's not true but if you look under 18 they won't sell it to you.

Okay, this is all well and good, but anyone with a brain can see that this is actually to protect the reptilians.

You can get ID'd for buying plastic cutlery in supermarkets. I got ID'd for hairspray the other day. I can buy vodka, knives, fireworks all easily, bit god forbid I should try and style my hair.

Well of course they're trouble estates. The police keep taking all the god damn silverware. They probably can't even maintain the place because the police probably don't let them keep any tools either. God forbid they find a screwdriver. This has gotta be joke. It's clearly satire making fun of how ridiculous your laws and police are.

Through bluff. We entered Africa and India, caused lots of trouble then got local warlords and princes to rule on our behalf. Ofc it helped that we were not as brutal as other nations and liked to keep some sort of law and order.

My dads friend got stabbed by a screwdriver, it wasn't pretty.
Also they don't go through bins, they take them from gang members who are carrying them to attack people with.

While they do take them off gangs they do also go into a area, typically a housing estate and search the area for stashed weapons i.e bushes, gardens and bins. There was a tv doc which still runs on BBC's iplayer called The Met where they are filmed doing just that.

Actually, yes. A lot of people I know have a knife on them on a regular basis. Granted, they generally use it as a tool or to open packaging or for some other mundane task. Most people in Florida are probably in favor of open carrying machine guns.

That doesn't surprise me at all. Having a knife among one's daily possessions seems pretty normal to me.

So if I keep a steak knife in a drawer, it's fine, but if they find it under a mattress, it's suddenly a crime? If someone wanted to commit a murder with a steak knife, they'd just put it with the rest of their cutlery. They're not gonna throw it in a bush.
