Yet more stabbings

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-104601 0/Knife-crime-Britain-claims-teenage-lives-boy s-aged-16-17-brutally-killed.html

Two more young lives lost and what action to date has been taken, to try and prevent this increasing carnage?

If there had been a similar percentage increase in car accident fatalities, the authorities would have been rushing to tighten up on car related laws i.e. stiffer penalties, more speed cameras, etc. etc.

Its a disgrace the ambulance service didn't respond quicker and the ambulance phone-operator deserves the sack for commenting about the number of background voices.....hysteria, naturally!

Odd murderer not caught, with so many about?

Ambulances can ask for police escort in such cases? No excuse.......heads should roll!

What would you like 'them' to do?

Recruit more police for the beat? How much would that cost?

Educate these youths? How much time do you think this will take?

Do you have a magic wand that you can lend 'them'.

Another typical Left Wing response.

Hold your hands up and surrender. Don't come down hard on criminals etc etc etc .......

One does not need a magic wand, only common sense and commitment to see the task through..

We have plenty of Police already, it's all dependant on how one deploys them.

And in the end, should money or the time taken, ever be more important than lives?

Would you oneeyedvic, be prepared to give the parents of some of these victims the answer you have given me?

Can you read?

Can you tell me where I said that?

I simply asked you a question - you asked why is nothing being done, I asked you what do you want to be done?

Are you looking for new laws? If so, do you know how long it takes to write a law?

Are you looking for more police? Do you know how long it takes to get suitable candidates and train them?

Have you actually tried engaging your brain at all today?

Hi ano - The Moston stabbing is our local lane. Tragic.
I don't know what can be done. How can you stop kids carrying knives? We haven't enough police to constantly spot check?
