You think you are in the 21st century think about the 16th century. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_hunt
Man, the uk is a silly place
Yeah, i mean if someone really wants to decapitate someone they can just go to the next best hardware store and get a chainsaw. This is so pointless.
Why? Is there a legitimate reason for anyone to own or be able to easily purchase a ninja sword?
Ninja swords are not actually a real thing, so what exactly is this banning?
Why are they banning knives and swords category by category (e.g., zombie knives, ninja swords) instead of a broader ban?
Performance art.
Anything in the UK carried for the intent to harm another person is a weapon. I do lots of low impact woodland/forest work. Axes, saws etc. in my bag. If I carried them to a Birmingham park to murder someone they would be weapons and not allowed. If I carry them into a woodland I have a contract to manage, they are tools and allowed.
These extra rules/laws don’t change the above. The swords could still have been outlawed as weapons by the legal system.
But… doing this means the perl clutches can sleep easy knowing “something is being done”
It just occurred to me maybe the headline is about sword-owners who are ninjas, which totally changes the meaning.
