Mayor of Londonistan Implements Knife Control

RUSH: You know, ladies and gentlemen, how over the many years of this program incidents happen and I make jokes about these incidents, and then eventually making a joke about something that’s ridiculous and absurd actually happens. Someday down the road, the Democrats or leftists and liberals, not just here, but around the world, do it.

RUSH ARCHIVE: According to the FBI, knives kill far more people than rifles in America. And it’s not even close. Recent stats from 2016 show that knives kill five times as many people as rifles in 2016. According to the FBI, 1600 people were killed by knives and cutting instruments, 374 were killed by rifles in 2016? Where’s the sense of proportion here? Of course, that’s why this is politics. I mentioned this to illustrate how it is political. There is no knife control movement.

RUSH: Yes, there is. There is a knife control movement in London. The mayor of Londonistan has declared an intense new knife control policy to stop the epidemic of stabbing. You see what they’ve done over there, they’ve started banning guns and they’ve been doing that for the longest time and so now people are stabbing each other. And here comes this novice leftist mayor, after an epidemic of stabbings and acid attacks in London has gotten so bad that the London mayor, Sadiq Khan, is announcing broad new knife control policies.

I saw this today, this has to be an Onion story, this has to be a satirical post, this can’t possibly be true. And then I said, wait a minute, it has to be true, and this is exactly what happens. The leftists do stupid stuff all the time. And their stupid stuff they don’t think is stupid, they think it’s brilliant; it ends up infringing on the rights of everybody. And it never gets to the nuts and bolts of the problem!
