Thepossumdance Reviewed by Thepossumdance on 06-02-2007. How can anyone get away with this? I was out last night, at about 12:30am. I was comming up to some traffic lights but i slowed down slightly anticipating change before i got there, and to my left there was a small gang of about 7 teenagers. That's a normal sight in London - normally more than 7 though. Anyway, as i went past i looked and saw something by one of these kids legs, and at first i though it was a branch from a tree or something, but as i kept going the street light lit it up and it was a fucking 4 foot samurai Rating: 5

If you want to see some street crime, you can come on down to Los Angeles. Their is literally over 40 blocks you can't walk down at anytime, unless you live there. . .it's crazy

Are samurai swords a common thing in the uk?

they are considered a gang weapon round here just like knuckle dusters

I was out last night, at about 12:30am. I was comming up to some traffic lights [that were green thank god] but i slowed down slightly anticipating change before i got there, and to my left there was a small gang of about 7 teenagers. That's a normal sight in London - normally more than 7 though. Anyway, as i went past i looked and saw something by one of these kids legs, and at first i though it was a branch from a tree or something, but as i kept going the street light lit it up and it was a fucking 4 foot samurai sword. They were just standing there wtih it on full show. The way things are going these days they were probably planning to use it on someone too. Why is there never cops when you need them? Anyway, i just thought i'd post this coz i seriously couldnt belive the cheek - they just had it out in the open and didnt care who saw it. Un-fucking-believable.

You have such a good point with your statement "Why is there never cops when you need them?". Here in the US, it's worse though (as expected, i'm sure)... I've seen little bastards empty trash bags on peoples yards for fun, and get away with it. Yet when they see one teen walking down the street by himself, they feel like harassing him for looking "suspicious" (the history of my childhood in a nut shell). Fuck the Police..

london i thought was bad enough 15 yrs ago, thats why i moved to the south coast, but now it's got out of control with the gang culture, these people regard life as cheep,they have no respect for themselves or others. live by the sword die by the sword.

The only reason people have weapons is because they need them. It's our society that proliferates these fucks at an alarming rate. If you're in a dangerous place, you need a weapon. It just goes on and on and on. It's fucking stupid, and I feel your hatred, LIP.

But, these kids you describe. It doesn't sound like they have this weapon for protection purposes. They're using it against harmless people. They're doing it to look cool. I hate western society...

I don't feel safe walking the streets unarmed in London. I know so many people are strapped, especially in Brixton, which is why i never go there. I want a gun but with a silencer... Just in case of course, but the thing is the 'case' is occuring more and more, so perhaps it's only a matter of time. Am i merely postponing my inevitable death as long as possible? Aren't we all? I don't want to die until i have lived, i don't wish someone to take my life in a heartbeat. If i had a way of stopping that i would. Serious considerations rite now...

that kind of shit makes me soo mad!

but its even worse in USA, because its not swords, its guns....

Yep I have to agree with LIP on this one gun crime is rocketing over here.
After the Dunblane massacre our goverment took all the guns from decent honest law abiding gun owners (like me) christ almighty even our Olympic shooting team has to go abroad to practice as even they are not allowed
guns.
The end result of this is that gun crime in the UK has risen 70% there is hardly a day goes by now without a killing so what is our goverments answer to this, they are now trying to ban air weapons soon to be followed by water pistols no doubt, I am probably being a bit cynical as I am just pissed off at not being allowed a gun and I never shot anybody (although I might make an exception for little pricks carrying samurai swords)

In the state of Wisconsin it's legal to carry Samari Swords, fantasy swords, etc....as long as they are in a sheath and not concealed.

On my birthday I stopped off at the pawn shop and found a beautiful fantasy sword for cheap. (36" blade) I was on the bike so I really had no options except for making a harness out of rope and strapping it to my back. LOL....the dude at the pawn said I looked like Biker He-Man. Guess the Harley was a sub for Battlecat. LOL
