a. I think knife crime should be stopped full stop. However in today's society this will not happen. It is down to the minority of people who decide to take a life by stabbing someone that gives a knife a bad name.
b. no
c. license to buy a knife
b. no
c. license to buy a knife

b) (No) Severe sentences, anyone who points a knife to another is not fufiling their civic duty and needs to dealt with.
c) Harsher sentences, crack down on chav culture and more nationalism so people see each other as equals not people to be abused. The categorical imperative if you will.

Nailed it. Though i'd say maybe alternatives could be found to license..not quite sure what though.

b) No, but it's hardly surprising since there isn't the political will.
c) Stuff like stricter enforcement and better education isn't going to work because it's not addressing the root cause of the issue. Knife crime - and crime in general - happens as a result of our failure as a society to address the huge amount of inequality and deprivation in our communities. If you want to stamp out knife crime, you need to prevent people from slipping into gang-culture in the first place. This requires a complete educational, economic and social reform which simply isn't possible in our money-driven society. People who claim that we can solve this problem simply by teaching people about the risks really aren't thinking things through properly. It's much, much more complex than that.

a) Obviously it's horrendous and any decent human being should not have to suffer from it.
b) (No) Severe sentences, anyone who points a knife to another is not fufiling their civic duty and needs to dealt with.

When we're discussing people who are likely to commit knife crime, we're not discussing ambitious rich kids who have an amazing future ahead of them. We're talking about people who have grown up in complete economic and social deprivation, people who are being completely and totally alienated from society. Harsher punishments aren't going to faze them. Most of them don't think they have a future anyway. You can see it clearly in the statistics. People are so desperate that they are committing crimes to get into prison, because their lives outside are too horrible to cope with. Putting the blame on the offenders and trying to solve the issue by saying "punish them more" is going to do nothing. It's an easy solution that makes the general public happy, but does absolutely nothing to actually solve the issue.
