Where Great Britain Used To Be
First, some idiot judge says: Knives are too sharp and filing them down is solution to soaring violent crime. And these people used to be an empire.
An activist was jailed for recording outside of courtroom proceedings. Then a judge ordered a media blackout of his arrest.
Ugh.

“Butchers and fishmongers do, but how often, if at all, does a domestic chef use the point of an eight-inch or ten-inch knife? Rarely, if at all.”
Umm, no, try daily! Ban all military style assault kitchen knives! No one except for trained military or police…err…chefs should be allowed to own one! They have other purpose than to kill, or filet a salmon, or butterfly a chicken breast, or slice any manner of large vegetables…

On the first story, what do you expect from a country ruled by old women?
On the second story, it’s simple: No right to a public trial under English law. That’s why July 4, 1776 and that’s why it’s in our Bill of Rights (6th Amendment).

If somebody tells you America is not exceptional, hit him with a rubber chicken. (Not a real one, that’s cruel to the chicken.)

Re story 2: that produced a funny mistake on Fox’s Brett Baier news show. He said that Trump Jr. had commented that things like this caused Brexit. Well, sort of. He actually said it was reason #1776 for Brexit… so he obviously was not talking about the referendum a few years ago.
