Today I compare the mentality of the citizens of the Old World to the citizens of the last free nation on Earth.
While the Democrats and Socialists (but, I repeat myself) are working to demonize "assault" rifles here in the US, their counterparts in England are now demonizing "Zombie" knives and swords.
In each case, the key to manipulating the faithful is to invent scary words and invoke scary images.
Samurai swords have been illegal in Britain for several years (curved blades are very scary) and there is now legislation moving forward to ban Medieval straight swords as well. Here is a list of currently illegal swords:
- Zombie Sword – a sword whose cutting edge has serrated forms that could land lethal strikes or have clearly shown details of murderous images (for example, the word death) on them. These are also called zombie knives on occasion
- Cane Sword – a cane that resembles a walking stick which might have a hidden thin blade inside of it or sticking out from the edge of the cane
- Stealth Sword – any type of sword stick that resembles regular day items, like an umbrella. Because of this, these swords could be hidden and carried without being noticed by the public. They’re also often made out of material that cannot be detected by metal detectors
- Curved Sword – any curved blade that has an overall length larger than 19.68 in (50 cm) based on a straight line from the guard to the end of the blade.
Of course, these restrictions are merely examples of 'common sense sword control' ... after all, Samurai swords are weapons of war, right?
Well, let's see what happens when you empower overzealous, self-appointed social Nazis.
Ahhh, on the left we have 'Zombie' pliers taken off the streets. And on the right we have courageous Officer McGulgan taking dangerous scissors from school children.
I would like to leave y'all with a few thoughts on independence and self-reliance. Any society where the citizens have been so beaten into submission that they now fear Medieval weapons and pointy scissors deserves to descend into irrelevance. Socialists preach 'equity' to seduce the masses and convince everyone that they're a victim of someone. Equity breeds mediocrity and poverty and always descends into despotism. Every socialist experiment has turned to tyranny. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Maduro. There have been no exceptions. Be careful what you vote for. |
I imagine that the Brits will eventually discover the ultimate solution to crime, violence and human passion.
