Notting Hill shows UK intent
There is an annual Caribbean street festival in the Notting Hill area of London (yes, the same “Notting Hill” as the Julia Roberts/Hugh Grant/Rhys Ifans romcom) which just concluded – with everyone reportedly having a great time. 8 stabbings were reported, 275 arrests, 75 police officers were attacked, six bitten, one sexually attacked, and there were multiple reports of utes attacking others with machetes. Sounds like a great time for all.
I will not comment on the ethnicity of the offenders – not an appropriate venue for that, and I’m ethnically not a believer, so to speak.. The photos posted on The Telegraph.UK and the NY Post seem to indicate the Caribbean element is more prominent in the reports; but that isn’t why we are here. Look what they want to do in response:
Possessing a machete or zombie knife “with no practical use” will carry a jail sentence of up to two years in jail under a crackdown to close loopholes in the law.
Machetes and knives that are designed to look intimidating and threatening will be made illegal under new legislation that is expected to be included in this Autumn’s King’s Speech.
The maximum sentence for anyone possessing, selling, manufacturing or importing the banned weapons will be increased from six months to two years, as will the maximum penalty for sales of knives to under 18s.
Police will also be given new powers to seize and destroy knives found on private premises if there are reasonable grounds to believe the blade would be used in a serious crime.
Under current laws, police cannot seize knives found during a search on a property, even if they had suspicions of criminal use.
The Government will also introduce a new offence (sic) for possession of bladed articles with the intention to endanger life or cause fear of violence. At present, offenders can only be prosecuted for carrying a weapon in public or threatening someone with one. The Telegraph.UK
See all the subjective phrases I italicized? The lack of objective standards? This is what we have to look forward to… the folks after your freedoms look up to the Euro power-grabbers and try to follow their examples, be it on climate control, household appliances, defense weapons, whatever. This is the kind of thing that allows them to do essentially what they want, when they want, to you without fear of repercussion.
Want a great example? Look at the headlines…Joe Biden says he will “set aside politics” to help Florida deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Idalia. Joe… you’re the freakin’ PRESIDENT and these are (mostly) your citizens. You don’t get to ever allow politics to step INTO something like this. But the implication is there…partisanship if you don’t toe the line… in everything.

Gee, thanks Joe. Way to be the bigger man and SET ASIDE POLITICS to help people devastated by a natural disaster. You gonna cut a 700$ check to them too?
Well, he did say he was going to send Maui $95 million (with an M) to help rebuild their electric grid. Didn’t mention “setting politics aside” there because the islands are reliably Democrat. Not so sure after the fiasco there.
And Fla has, you know, lots of MAGA people there. Can’t arrest them all, so to show no hard feelings…
The Notting Hill thing, that’s what happens when you’re a subject, not a citizen… and yeah, it’s where we’re headed here.. because of the demographic you didn’t mention, (along with their intent to rule over us), politicians usually focus on the weapon, and not the perp.. it is not by accident..
Meanwhile, left/libtard tranny threatens women who don’t want him in their bathroom:

OK hero, pull that shit on MRS D. She’s a nurse, she knows how to make you bleed, carries a compact 1911 (with pink Punisher grips) and she hits right where she aims. As the good book says, “fucketh around, and you shall find out”.
I was thinking about one of those collapsible whip batons. No gunfire, little to no noise.
Gives the term “whip it out” a new meaning.
Do the damage to the tranny, leave “it” writhing on the floor, and walk out.
I have a Cold Steel Blackthorn walking stick I occasionally lean on. Nylon construction, steel core, looks like a traditional Irish walking stick. Looks very innocent.
I don’t have one that hardened, but I have a few walking sticks. I could possibly stand to sacrifice one or two “for the cause”.
I harvested a couple of branches from my apple tree. I’ll have to look and see if I can make one of those into a suitable walking stick.
Brazos sells some very good canes and staves.
“Nothin like a nice piece of hickory…”
Heh.
Hmmmmm. An interesting way to put my limp to good use.
Exactly 😉

Really affordable too!
North Korea also talks sh*t about nuclear war and conquest of South Korea:

Paraphrasing:
“Our button is bigger, and works.”
Maui fire was caused by climate change says the green Ass-Hole liberals so that means if I put my thermostat up to 78Deg. from 77Deg. and the thermostat overloads and catches fire, it’s called climate change. Volly Fire Fighter for 30 years and we never called a fire climate change and not even an Arson Investigator when called in mentioned climate change. WTF.
Don’t suppose those uninsulated power lines getting downed had anything to do with it?
They were blown down. By high winds. From an offshore hurricane… caused by… say it with me now… Climate Change!
That’s why I started my comment with my thermostat fire. I watched the Maui camera shot of the electrical arc when the wire hit the ground. It’s climate change alright. I still haven’t seen any video footage from 3 million years ago when a 20,000 volt power line dropped on a glacier and caused it to melt. Am wearing out the keyboard keys and ink spools looking on the internet.
Of course it was Climate Change. The utility emphasized “green energy” projects over power line maintenance. If the utility had done their job instead of worshipping at the altar of global warming, the fire probably wouldn’t have happened. So climate change did cause the fire.
Naw, couldn’t be… /sarc
Also, if the pilot light goes out on a persons gas stove, resulting in gas build up over time, and that gas finds an ignition source and blows up the house, THAT is ALSO considered CLIMATE CHANGE.
I ain’t sure if it’s climate change, but its damn sure life changing.
There is a certain young NFL player that recently lost his father, who will agree with you.
I’ll tell ya that reading these comments is a real gas. I love it
The gas itself was caused by climate change 😉
Mk19 problems demand Mk19 solutions!
That ain’t no knife…ain’t even got an attachment for a chainsaw bayonet. It’s not a walking stick either, tho you can walk some rounds onto the target and cut them up, so there is that. You know how the Head Shed really likes for the comments to be, at least, within the general Zip Code of the Thread Subject.
How about you try to focus, concentrate, and quit teasing me with pics of toys that I don’t have, do need, do covet, and would help to shore up that North Wall. Mmmm’Kay?
Dress to carry…concealed….every.where.you.go!
The implication is after the constables declare a riot they clear the streets, 40mm at a time.
Don’t forget you have to feed the pig too! (below)
Do you tease that trophy wife of yours on a constant basis too? If so, good thing you know how to make a sammich.
This is not surprising. They don’t have citizens over there, only “subjects”. They have nothing approaching rights, only privileges granted by their government and subject to removal or suspension of those privileges at the whim of that same government. Pretty easy to do such things when you have a disarmed populace to deal with.
Look at that thing. That had to be something thought up by a bunch of lance corporals.
“Machetes and knives that are designed to look intimidating and threatening will be made illegal“
Now that’s at least four-star stupid.
I heard that the Brits are going after certain kitchen utensils if they deem them a threat.
Smilin’ Tom.
The real issue is arms. The Brits no longer have the right to arms. First it was guns, then steak knives and now scary gas station machetes. But the real issue is arms. All the have to do is cut off the arms of everyone and this problems is in the forever outbox.
Proof why we needed to be an independent country (and have guns).
But, seriously, after banning even owning a scary knife, the Brits will want to bam sticks, gravity and unauthorized testicles next by the way they’re going.
