Thanks for that.Very useful. My question (to simplify it) should have been what causes them to commit such crimes? Sorry I didn't make that clear for you.

I'd suspect it is gang related. You get yourself involved with gangs then what do you expect.

Of course there will be the odd mugging where a weapon is used though I suspect the statistic is higher for deaths happening due to gang warfare than this.

Each crime will be as different as the perpetrator and the victim.

Perhaps, if you told us which dog-whistle you're blowing, we'd know how to help you.

I don't think there is one answer why they do it.....and I don't think there is one solution.....

But I do think automatic full life jail sentencing might help create a deterrent in some cases ...

Indeed. Some killers get away with ludicrously short sentences (usually a plea bargain to agree to unlawful killing and manslaughter etc)Life for any vilonce with a knife involved should result in an automatic life sentence.You carry a knife to use it. Otherwise why carry it?

No one can say wether knife crime has gone up or down over the years as it is only recently that knife crime numbers have been recorded. Previously they were just on the charge sheet and not recorded seperatly.

Just because we are told knife crime is worse today than it was say 20-30 years ago doesn't actually mean it is true.

If you want to carry a knife- wear a kilt. For some inexplicable reason, the sgian dhu is exempt from knife legislation yet just a lethal as a Bowie knife, an open razor or a K bar.

I'm not condoning violence of any discription but the kids today are incapable of just using their fists to settle an arguement like we did when we were younger! there was no knives,bottles etc if you weren't able to sort it with your fists then you left it be...

What a society we live in today!
