Knife amnesty box - photo

IMS, the King's Guard carries rifles with mounted bayonets and the King's Life Guards utilize swords in public ceremonies.

What do the English people think of this nonsense?

Indeed they do carry rifles with bayonets, several cut themselves during parade training with them, my youngest is in the photo and thankfully didn't cut himself.

As to the nonsense, attending the parade we were arch scanned and had bags etc checked for knives, guns etc, one copper even questioned my rescue shears in my belt pack emergency aid kit until a supervisor told him they were fine as not pointed. The bulk of knife 'crime' in Londonistan is not by 'English' (White British) people, but by 2nd/3rd generation immigrants and more recent migrants, it's gotten to the stage where only 'white' criminals are ever described in initial public Police crime reports/information requests. Though it must be said young white boys living in high immigrant/migrant areas have started to arm themselves with knives, usually in response to the number of times they've been threatened with knives, so the problem is a growing one. This covers much of the problem
