Piers Morgan Weighs In On London's Knife Ban and Twitter Responds
Ben Shapiro's favorite punching bag Piers Morgan weighed in on London’s Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan issuing a knife ban because for some reason London criminals weren't obeying the laws about not stabbing people.

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. https://t.co/XILUvIFLOW

I'm sure Britain does as wonderful a job as America does in keeping knives out of prison... Wait, what do you mean by "Another guy got shanked?"

If Britain can't keep knives away from people locked away in a building from which they can't escape. How do you suppose "Banning Knives" will work in the real world?

Of course, Piers Morgan "Mr. Do away with all guns" tweeted out his two-cents... As if anything he has to offer is worth that much.

What would be truly ‘disgusting’ is to think the answer to rising knife crime is to arm everyone with a knife. Britain’s response will be to make it harder for criminals to use knives to attack people, not to do nothing or make it easier. https://t.co/XkPf2OY2KB

Aaaaaand Twitter responded

Apparently you have gone bloody mad. London's murder rate now exceeds that of NYC. Newsflash for you, criminals don't obey laws, that is by definition what makes them criminals. Get it? Got it? UK should give back to the people their right to defend themselves. #Trump2020

You're deluded. You cant make more laws to stop criminals. Anyone can make a killing knife with a hand grinder. People have the right to defend themselves.

As of today, 2,342,987 criminals have turned in their knives. BWAAHAHAHAHAHA

So Piers... quick question for you? Do you have armed security?

Britain should just ban knives altogether and laws should be written all food sold in Britain has to be sold as bite size portions. If that doesn't work, then all food must be pureed.

Piers I follow you as I appreciate your candor, even when I disagree. I question how it can possibly be more difficult for people to use a knife as a weapon. A knife is used for many purposes and is found in every home, impossible to prevent this outside of random body searches

What's truly disgusting is leaving average citizens unarmed and helpless to defend themselves from vicious criminals.

Ban guns..knives ...anything else you want but criminals will use a pen or acid attacks maybe build a bomb ! Crime and not dealing with a criminal element might be the issue!!
