It has come to my attention many of you claim there's a greater likelihood of being a victim of knife crime in UK than in other countries, particularly America, product of the substitution effect generated by gun (firearms) control.

To test this claims, first I obtained the number violent and sexual offences involving a knife or sharp instrument recorded by police in UK, currently 26,146 for the financial year 2012/2013 and covering the following: attempted murder, threats to kill, actual bodily harm (ABH), grievous bodily harm (GBH), robbery, rape and sexual assault.

Then I proceeded to identify comparable crime categories being recorded by American police. Namely robbery and aggravated assault committed with knives or cutting instruments, totaling 146,868 offenses corresponding to a rate of 54.7 per 100,000.

After excluding 274 sexual offences involving a knife or sharp instrument from UK data (given the impossibility of comparison) and assuming a population of 56,567,800 for the year 2012, I was able to calculate UK's knife crime at 45.7 per 100,000.

As you can see, once again, gun owner's claims are unsupported by evidence.

Let's heat it up a little:

have you ever used one?
tried to make your own?

could a low intensity long term insurgency similar to the troubles in northern Ireland ever happen in murrica?

Take a 3a soft armor vest. Add some flaps, velcro, straps and buckles to it. So you can convert it into a back pack. So during the day you can carry your armor with you in places like school or the office, with out having to be sweaty and odd looking from wearing the armor under clothes. When you you hear gun shots you can undo a few straps and flaps and throw it on over your head.

Jew York General. Anyone staying in the state after last weeks ruling? Anyone going? Anyone planning poorfag rescue operations?

So, I noticed we've had a bit of a problem with /pol/ lately. I think they're here because of the casual racism on /k/. Hear me out. I know that most of the time it's done in jest but sometimes it's not. I think if we stopped with the "fuck kebab/muslims" and "fuck redguards/niggers" the climate would be much better around here and we wouldn't attract so many /pol/acks.

I know it's "/k/ culture" but at the end of the day it's harmful to the board because it attracts an unsavory crowd. So even if it's in jest, let's dispense with it, shall we? In doing so we would improve the general health of this board and keep out the fringe elements. And hey, at the end of the day, Muslims and blacks are just like us. I've known responsible black gun owners. They're no different from us. Show /pol/ shit like this is not alright.

Thanks, /k/.

What are your thoughts on this, /k/? They started out in California. Is it a genuine club that's pro-2nd Amendment, or another trick of the progressives to divide and conquer the gun community?

People of /k/,

Many of us have realized that the content of our boards are illegitimate and have been manufactured by bots to harvest more replies. There have been multiple threads addressing this issue recently, mainly on /pol/, /int/ and /x/. These bots are using various tactics described in the OP image (http://imgur.com/C1Euigw) to control the flow of the boards, in order to hide or promote an opinion about a certain matter. Threads are being duplicated and posted on numerous boards at the same time, along with the same posts being posted in these threads at the same time. We have compiled evidence of these bots which can be viewed here (https://www.mediafire.com/?dbtl2vk621llvdh).

Threads that discuss this matter have been deleted across all boards. You can view the old threads here:
