What a ridiculous statement and comparison.

I agree that its stupid to try and ban knives being sold but how do you compare that to gun control? Do you need guns to prepare food? Knives are one of many things that are necessary to have but can be used to harm people. Dometic keeping of guns is not necessary in my opinion. And gun ownership is very tightly restricted here in the UK, do you think thats wrong?

Also the article refers to a very sepcific type of knife and not just any "pointy" knife. You might wanna actually read what you're posting a link to and consider your argument and comparisons next time.
