More stabbings in London
There has been another double stabbing in Londons,Leicester Square an 11 year old girl and a 34 year old woman.
Hopefully they have not been seriously hurt, but the trauma will last for years.
Police have already got a man in custody.
Time to change the law.
Use a knife and you will get life.

Re: More stabbings in London
Similar things happening here too James, it seems that the Knife is getting far too a common way of Maiming or Killing these days.
Just the day before yet also another Stabbing , senseless and a Body found in a Block of Flats!
Life is not enough i say, bring back the Death Penalty!

Re: More stabbings in London
Should never have done away with it Des. If none of Albert Pierrepoints family don’t want the job I’ll do it for free , just travelling expenses. You could come along as my driver and be my technical advisor as to the tying of the knot , so hang on to that driving licence for a few more years. Cheers JS.

Re: More stabbings in London
John.
Where the death by stabbing is a child or a woman it should be mandatory, and like you I would volunteer to do the job. WE could set up a partnership John and Des hanging Co, thousand dollars per neck, satisfaction guaranteed. Gruesome as this sounds something must be done. I'm reminded of that woman who has been murdered in Sheperton i Victoria, they have caught the culprit , a twenty year old,who's father is a copper I think. he has been in jail waiting to go to court for the past six months, but won't reveal where the body is for the family to bury. His sentence should include a clause not to be released until he coughs up to the site.

Re: More stabbings in London
To be honest I think violence is being sanitized as kids are playing a lot of these violent video games and seem to think perhaps it is normal life?
Also look at TV especially the prime time soaps East Enders , Corrie to name but 2. I never watch any of them but you sometimes catch the jist when they play a trailer of that nights coming episode. As soon as the theme music starts for East Enders time to either get into kitchen and cook or turn the TV off.
I do have concerns if they bring back the death penalty, they only need to get it wrong once.
Sorry but there are a lot of occassions were knee jerk public opinion demands action and on more than one occassion an innocent has been stitched up by police.
Exception the likes of those 2 scumbags who butchered Lee Rigby. What a waste of oxygen those two Islamist terrorists Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale are, should have been shot dead were they stood.

Re: More stabbings in London
The girl who was stabbed 8 times by a steak knife was an Australian girl on holiday with her mother.
Very sad.
