England Bans Teenagers*

Or something like that. Look, I didn't fucking read this but I know it has to do with teenagers and knives and England increasing what should be illegal search and seizure:

Gordon Brown has called for under-18s caught carrying knives to be prosecuted in the wake of a series of attacks.

Ahead of a meeting with police chiefs at Downing Street, he said carrying knives was "unacceptable" and pledged extra stop and search powers.

Current police guidance in England and Wales is to prosecute adults caught with a knife, but caution under-18s.

On Monday Arsema Dawit, 15, was stabbed to death, the 16th teenager to die after an attack in London this year.
England's approach to minimizing violence reminds me of this.

The obvious solution is reintroducing firearms into the populace. Instead they find every ridiculous method by which to reduce violence on the condition that it isn't that.

Barring arming the population I think banning teenagers might work.  Well, YOUEE, anyway.
