    Of course its a weapon, its a friggen dagger.

    I diddn't even know they were currently allowed to wear that bs anywhere, makes your kids feel safe doesn't it. Kids running around with guns in school, but afraid to show it because its illegal. While other kids running around with knifes, not afraid to present it because it is legal.

    Religion should be given a new description, the next word for Drama.

    You didn't know they could carry those? Get out much?
    This is the first time I've ever heard of one of those being used as a weapon.
    Their usually pretty shitty decorative things, not actual usefull knives.

    I wish I could find some of the threads that we used to have about things like this. It would be interesting to see what people have said about this.

    I really dont get why they have to wear the damn thing the crocodile Dundee. If is just for show give the kiddies plastic knives until they are grown up enough to see a fine or jail time if they pull a knife on someone.

    And drawing one to threaten is the ultimate no-no. Daddy is not gonna be impressed at all.
    To paraphrase" Somebody's gonna get hurt, really, really bad...

    I find this pretty funny because I carried far better and more effective knives through school and the only person I cut was myself. I can easy see the kids on Knemore pushing minorities till they snapped but these events are far and few between. In Torronto or other crime ridden places, a cheesy ornanental blade would be simply something flashy to aim at in the dark.
