Last week we looked at the growing crisis on our streets, with 2021 on course to become one of the worst on record for teenage homicides. Years of interventions and official initiatives seem to be making little impact, with 18 young people having been stabbed to death in London so far this year.

We have been out with one community organisation, run by a man whose own experience of being stabbed has led him to try to rid the streets of knives.

I would carry a gun if the permit was available, unfortunately, i see no problems with why people would carry knives for their own protection when the country is falling to anarchy.

I think sentencing needs to be sorted as well. Hurt someone with a knife you get 15 to 20 years. Kill someone and you are done. Minimum 30 years. Friend of mine was killed in Hull when we were 16, his killer is out now less than 20 years later. Living on the other side of town to me with a girlfriend and a 2 year old daughter. He should be caged up with the rest of the animals. 16 years for killing a boy who only lived that long himself. Itd almost be funny.

There was a time in my adolescence that I was constantly verbally and physically attacked because of how I looked and some of these people I witnessed did have knives on them. I felt terrified to leave the house and remember on few occasions I took dusters, a small kitchen knife and glass shards with me just incase anything happened. I was stupid, luckily nothing ever did happen and I moved into a school shortly after. But it just shows how easy the fear of other dangerous weapons can make u hold a dangerous weapon. I wasn't in no gangs, wasn't a vicious person, but I was scared, and I couldve lost my life in many ways because of it.

@@Ryan-ce1oc the idea that weapons are illegal so only criminals can have it and be sure nobody else does sounds way smarter, doesn’t it? of course it doesn’t you might be not aware of this, but getting a gun illegally is so easy these days anyone with 2 digit IQ can get it within a few days. And Criminals are way less likely to approach you when you’re carrying a gun. Its just you percieving them as if their lives dobt matter for them. They want to stay alive as much as you do. So if we’re playing „but if” game - consider how eager the criminal is to approach a person with and without a gun. tl;dr you dont understand humans and the logic behind your statement is broken

@@gudgejm The problem is you are applying a childs logic. 1) How does the criminal know you have a gun anyway, are you walking around everywhere with it in your hand? 2) The criminal might just want your phone and you pulling a gun out means he now has to kill you otherwise he might die. 3) If it were that easy to get guns then there would be a gun epidemic, not a knife epidemic. Giving everybody weapons is the best way to escalate situations that are not life or death into situations that are life or death. That implies more deaths, not less deaths. There is also zero evidence that more weapons act as a deterrent, and actually quite the contrary. Both gun crime in america shows this and knife crime in the UK shows this.

Yeah but when you have a real weapon it is easier, people are more likely to choose an easy path. Also, weapons are designed to do damage and sometimes people that use them don’t realize how bad it can be, a young man could kill another and then say ‘I did not mean it, I wanted to scare him but things got out of hand’. I think they are not trying to prevent premeditated murders, more like random unfortunate events among boys that act like gangsters

It doesn't mean that anyone should be able to on 50 BMG killing machines, or conceal carry micro guns (which far more dangerous than the 50 BMG killing machines, even) though. It _is_ the weapon that matters, _as well as_ the mindset of individuals. I'm not for the banning of firearms, but I _do_ think it makes sense to ban anyone (aside from special exemptions such as police) from carrying any small/concealable firearms such as handguns on their person outside of a shooting range or their private property. This is roughly like what the law in Canada is, except Canada has some stupid extra rules that are illogical/net-detrimental, such as banning certain specific models of weapons for being "assault style", as well as banning suppressors. And on a related note, they also ban stuff like carrying around pepper spray or shock devices.

I do however agree in part about upbringing but until that changes we can only do so much and being proactive taking some of the “zombie” knives of the streets and other such stupid things it helps. I don’t put my life in the hands of the police either, none of what we do goes through the police at all we don’t report a single blade and everyone stays anonymous.

I doubt it. I admire their commitment and their intention but those who are most likely to actually use a knife are not going to just hand them in. Even you took away their knives if they were so determined to stab someone they will just go through the kitchen cupboards. Literally everyone has knives in their kitchens. The solution to this problem lies within the ppl themselves. It needs a culture change. Punishments must also get a lot heavier as a deterant. Its no good handing out Mickley mouse sentences. They need a real deterant. I'd bet anything that if they knew they would be hanged for it they wouldn't be so casual about it.
