    Someone who makes shoes in India and sells them in a city centre doesn't benefit the community.

    Might be providing value for money though (unlike many's a Guardian Jobs sectoin employed in the community

    Eh?
    I don't read the guardian, but I can guess you're on about all sorts of hippy style jobs with glorious names that actually do very little?
    Seeing as most of them are based around London I can't give 2 shits about them. If London want to waste their money on stuff like that then let them.

    There are few things that bring a smile to my face so easily as the little rants from the Daily Mailers and assorted types regarding the Jobs section in the Guardian's Society supplement. :D

    If you don't plan on using it there is no point in carrying it. Muggers are would-be-attackers are extremely unlikely to be intimidated by someone who is just holding a knife at them hoping it will scare them away.

    And if you plan on using one, well I'm sorry there is no excuse for stabbing people about, even if they plan to give you a kicking or to mug you. Chances are those prepared to use a knife will end up using it on non-life threatening situations.

    So I am a twat now. Muchas gracias...

    Muggers are likely to back of once seeing my knife. Not only the knife has the effect but also the type, how you hold it, your attitude... You'd be surprised to see the reaction of an angry mugger when they hear the click of my flick-knife and the word "Bring it on". They walk backwards and insult me, and finally go away.

    I carry it for self defence. I always have a bag on me with £2500 worth of camera equipment and I walk through very bad areas (in any city I have ever lived) and, unfortunatly, I have been nearly mugged more times than you could imagine. Usually the knife is not needed, but the times it was (only when they had a knife) it what extremly effective. And if I am so unlucky that he would want to go further, I have been trained to use it, but I don't I would. (That does not mean trained to kill, but trained to cut the hand that is carrying the knife).

    So yes they should be brought back, but this time let's search everyone eh?

    I don't know this law... Does it mean that the police can search anyone or anyone that is suspicious of having commited a crime...
