Carrying knives is a serious issue. IMO, this wasn't the best way to get the message across. This picture was in the
Metro yesterday, illustrating a piece on the
knife amnesty that the police are currently running. Now I don't know about you, but I haven't seen many
Bat'leths in our neck of the woods lately. For non-geeks, it's a weapon used by a race called the
Kingons in
Star Trek. They're also usually made of wood, as metal replicas cost upwards of $90. The attacks recently that have highlighted the issue of knives on the streets and in the playgrounds will have been made using much more prosaic, but no less lethal, impliments, It's these we need to deal with. Things like this only detract from that....
