just to be clear, when I spoke of the ban, I was speaking of england.. where I was talking to the fella...

but I'm in one hundred percent agreement with Dave and Tommy, it IS the people that are the problem... tommy kinda put my words a bit father, by adding in toasters etc... which is EXACTLY what I was getting at... ANYTHING with an edge or a bit of wieght can be used as an effective weapon! but they'l go ban "samuri" swords (I really really really hate that wording), make life difficult on the likes of us, make it more desirable for trouble makers to get swords (coz dont ya know that would make them 'cooler' - "hey look what
I was able to get!")
unfortunatly, because of the nature of the human race, no matter what we do, we'll never be able to resolve the issue fully... we may just face it, ppl are s**ts....

A hard on does NOT count as personal growth...
