    How does that even work? I see these sort of strange statistics in newspapers all the time.

    I mean if you had 100% less crime, wouldn't you have no crime?

    Yeah that was bad statistics on my part.

    Kinda.

    I meant, we should reduce the occurrence of crime to such a degree that it actually results in LESS OF A CHANCE of even the most pacifistic person committing an act of violence.

    I guess it's technically closer to 99.9999%.

    90000000000% is pretty nonsensical.

    But if crime fell by 50% then you can say crime is down 100%. It all depends what you use as your base - the old level or the new level.

    The government could actually do this in like 2 seconds if they just changed the laws.

    So tell me how these knife laws work? Are they like gun laws in the US?

    Do you have concealed carry? Can you carry a knife at all? What if you have a steak knife on ya?

    Look at this confused faggot.

    What laws? What protection? The police are there to protect the government, not you. Cops only show up after a crime happened so they can document it.

    What knife laws? I've lived in countries where carrying knives is illegal. Everyone still carried them.

    I only asked a question because I haven’t a clue how it works. I don’t care if people carry illegally. I’m genuinely curious about these laws. Sorry I’m not hard core.

    Basically in the UK you aren't allowed to have a knife on you in public unless you can demonstrate good reason.

    Thanks Soi!

    What would be a good reason? What are the punishments for being caught with a knife in you?

    typically needing it for work or whatever; ie. a construction worker won't generally get in trouble for carrying a retractable razor or something. It's really up to police discretion though so it often depends on whether they think you look like a 'troublemaker'. I'd probably get a fine if I were caught carrying even a leatherman, but I don't really see why you'd be caught in the first place unless you actually tried to use it as a weapon or tried to take it into an airport or parliament or something.

    I'm from Australia and our laws are fairly similar but I believe they're pursued more aggressively in Europe because they have more knife-related crime and are too afraid to go after the root causes.

    As an aside, a knife is not a good self defence weapon so I don't recommend carrying one for that purpose.

    I once was searched by customs in France, but I just showed them my folding knife (CRKT M16) calmly and they must have assumed it was a lighter or something. Pretty sure I would have got it confiscated at the very least.

    I feel safer with a knife at least. I would love to get one that doesn't set off detectors.
