It's a massive issue, it's horrendous, it's alarming that people even have to have the
00:05
conversation. I don't know whether that would necessarily make a difference but anything
00:11
to make it in discussion I think is a good idea.
00:14
I've got rounded edged knives and I don't know whether that's safer or not. I certainly
00:20
can still cut my fingers on a regular basis, I know that's not, you know, I'm not trying
00:24
to belittle the topic. I don't know what kind of stab injury I could do with that blade
00:29
just because it's blunted. It's still a blunt instrument, it would still do damage. I don't
00:34
know whether it does less damage, in which case, fine, let's push for it. I just don't,
00:40
I've not seen the evidence either way.
00:42
It's stopped the stabbing part, hasn't it? Because if you've got to stab somebody around
00:46
the blade, it ain't going to go in them, is it? It's going to bounce off me, isn't it?
00:48
You come and stab me, he's going to bounce off me. Come and stab me, it'll come in me,
00:51
what? I've been stabbed.
00:53
I like the monster dines that you see, the zombie dines. It should be outlawed completely.
