Due to the unprecedented surge in London stabbing murders that have surpassed the murder count in New York City in February and March for the first time in history, Khan is taking action. The idiot is implementing knife control.
When knives are outlawed, only outlaws will have knives.
Khan deployed over 300 additional London police officers to the highest crime areas in the city to stop and search anyone the may have a bulge in his pants that might be a knife, or G-d knows what.
These "tough, immediate" measures also ban home delivery of knives and acid, the other weapon choice of outlaws.
Khan, who once said that Londoners need to get used to terrorism, because it's "part and parcel" of living in a big city. He also vowed to make London the safest city in the world.
Now Khan established a "violent crime task force" with 120 officers that will "focus solely on violent crime, weapon-enabled crime and serious criminality." He is also investing more than $150 million in tax money in London's police department and $50 million in a youth program to get kids to steer away from violent crime and perhaps play violent video games to relax.
"No excuses: there is never a reason to carry a knife. Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law," Khan tweeted.
According to U.K. law, it's illegal for any U.K. resident to carry "without good reason" a knife with a folding blade larger than three inches. Using a knife in a "threatening way" is also illegal, as is using a cricket bat upside someone's head, running them over with a car, hitting them over the head with a hammer, or defenestrating them.
Adults found guilty of violating knife laws are subject to four years in the slammer.
When Khan campaigned in 2015, he promised to do "everything in my power to cut stop and search." He said it "undermines" public confidence in the local government and policing systems.
The irony is laughable.
If you like your knife, you can keep your knife. Period.
