Rock, Paper, Watermelon

Never let them take your guns knives nail scissors;

Knives and scissors have been removed from supermarket shelves in New Zealand after a recent stabbing attack. Supermarket chain Countdown said on Saturday, a partial “knife control” would be in effect for several weeks to prevent stabbing attacks going forward.

This decision came after a Sri Lankan national injured six people at a Countdown location in Auckland last Friday. Authorities said the attacker was inspired by the Islamic State to carry out the attack.

    1. What about banning stones or sticks. Oh can’t ban stones. Yes the Musloids need them for stoning women. Cultural exemption.
      The Earth Needs a big Cleansing

    2. New Zealand? If it wasn’t for the All Blacks we would throw rocks at them.

      New Zealand is the land of Hobbits and sheep, or rather was as the Lord of the Rings series was moved out of there after the people involved finally decided it was less hassle to film in Europe and not have to put up with NZ’s high and mighty attitude of ‘We stopped Covid… So… Do Not Come.’

      Their entire defence policy basically revolves around defending New Zealand to the last Australian and then signing up to Belt and Road. They cannot defend their own airspace short of frowning at you from the window of a C130 or hoping desperately the hostiles fly close enough to one of their only two ships capable of warfighting. Even those two ships (part of the ANZAC class) had to be pushed on them and even then there was a real campaign to have their two ships speed limited to 20 knots to prevent them ever being used as part of a USN fleet.

      They are run by an open socialist who hides behind the gender card when she is not hiding behind her teeth. Her policy last year for solving NZ unemployment was to get people to move to Australia for work. Being on one of the arse ends of the world they happily lecture the rest of the world on being more compassionate to illegal immigrants safe in the knowledge it is not New Zealand waters the people smuggler boats are sinking within.

      They had a horrific mass shooting and were all ready to play the Alt-Right Racist card, right up until they read that dickhead’s written rants and discovered he was actually openly pro-China and pro-Green (aka – one of THEM) and then they legally had him cancelled (yes, in NZ it is legally to discuss this man by name or attempt to analysis his motivations).

      AND, in context of this knife and scissor ban, the man who started it all by stabbing people in a store was UNDER FULL TIME POLICE OBSERVATION BECAUSE HE WAS A TERROR RISK.

      The reason he ONLY stabbed six innocent people and was shot within 60 seconds was the police were following him around, yet still watched him pick up the knife and then waited 59 seconds and six victims before acting.

      Honestly the only reason more people are not speaking out in disgust about New Zealand and their openly totalitarian rulers is most people can’t find it on a map.

      One day we might get our act together and liberate it, but I doubt it.

      Don’t let the cute Hobbit warm fuzzies fool you. Remember that even with all the oppressive bollocks happening in NSW at the moment, most New Zealanders would still happily move to Sydney.

      1. (edit to above)
        *it is ILLEGAL to discuss this man by name

        sorry for the confusion. I need to stop writing while angry.

  1. Maybe they should make pseudo-random, violent attacks illegal, or something. I’m sure that would work.

  2. They’d best get the gestapo to do a clean sweep of everyone’s kitchen, just to be on the safe side. Next….Rocks. Oh, and gravel.

    1. The speed at which a conspiracy theory turns into reality is getting increasingly faster these days.

        1. yes, you’re right. We need a light-saber registry. Ban the undocumented Jedi! (religious nutcases, one and all…)

  3. Of course, when they say “temporary,” they mean “permanent!”
    You gotta learn to read between the lines!

    You see, the common sense thing to do is to vett immigrants, and restrict entry to only reasonable people.

    But you know the left… They have to be “inclusive”, so the rest of the population will have to do without knives and scissors for a while, at least… for a long while, it would appear.

  4. I wonder if that ban includes the “Tullen Snips”, manufactured in New Zealand? They are damned good kitchen scissors, with rather blunt points.

  5. What a boon to all private knife makers.
    Blacksmiths all over NZ will be laughing themselves to the bank.
    Does even one of the Fools and Bandits supposedly in charge there question this?
    What will this ban accomplish?
    What is the bottom line for hysterical stupidity?
    Is there one?
    How ever we have watched the “Gun Control” nitwits run lose for far too long..
    Only an utter moron,or totally evil person,blames criminal activity,AKA murderous assault,on the tool used by the assailant.
    Only a clueless,useless non-tool user would be gullible enough to call this a “solution”.
    Maybe we need to assail this meme by demanding the same treatment for the two most lethal human activities..
    Driving automobiles and medical malpractice..
    Both heavily regulated by government,thus the results must be government’s desire.
    Shall we treat all these “mankillers” equally?

    1. Blacksmiths? Do you know how many there are? I went to college with a guy who was retraining in electronics. He was a master blacksmith – one of only 5 in all of North America. There might not be a single one in New Zealand.

  6. I wonder if the PM will be dressed in that muslim garb she likes to wear, when she visits the victims.

    1. It’s almost like they don’t understand that almost anything can be turned into a weapon. It’s not the weapons that are dangerous, but the people.

  7. Now don t forget to register your steak knives and garden shears, also ALL sharp instruments must be kept in a secure and locked tamper proof cabinet with a combination lock whose access is controlled by a government approved individual.

    1. You’ll also need to be a member of an approved Cutlery Club, and need to provide a genuine and approved reason for each sharp item you (are allowed to) possess.

      That’s what we Aussies have to do re firearms, and we can see it’ll get worse; far far worse now…

      Rope will be next, I guess, when someone gets strangled…

  8. We will never give up our guns. We will never give up our right to free speech. We will never give up our freedom of association. We will never give up our kitchen utensils. We will never give up our…umm ahh… whatever we have left.

  9. In New Zealand the have sharpened stones and wood, traditionally called a Patu. Wonder how banning them would go over with the Maori?

    1. Remember, the FNs here in Canada are exempt from the OICs and can keep their AR-15s and Mini-14s because they need them to maintain their way of life.

  10. forget banning knives. A better idea wouId be to ban peopIe from a backward third worId cuIture that thinks it’s ok to stick a knife in someone because they don’t adhere to your death cuIt.

  11. The ultimate end of a society dependent on socialized mal-education and bankrupt welfare / nanny state democracy. No fictional writer could get this shit through a sane editor / publisher outside of a Monty Python skit.

  12. Man oh Man!

    I can just tell by all the huffin’ n puffin’ that it’ll get *&^%$#g nasty when they come for your keyboards!

    1. I’ve heard that crazy mussulmen are know to kill with rocks as well. I’ve got 120 acres at the back of the farm that ought to have several tons of rocks removed for fear that they might fall into the wrong hands! C’mon big government! Come and cart them away!
      Hey Jamie. We’ll need to rename that old kids’ game to “rock-scissors-keyboard”

  13. “The left-wing cabinet of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has admitted loose immigration enforcement allowed the attacker to live in New Zealand.”
    …so the answer is to impose stupid knife restrictions on innocent citizens.
    The logic is irrefutable (because there is no logic there).

  14. The reaction of our betters it to focus the rules and laws on the inanimate object rather than the perpetrator and motivation. Top men.

    The good news: they probably don’t know what a Leatherman is.

    1. More likely that they think is some sort of kinky bondage character. That would be more their “idiom”.
