Rejected petition: Ban all knives on the streets! Including those for religious values!
Rejected on
Knives are illegal and still used in the streets as dangerous weapons causing many fatalities! So why should anyone for religious reasons be legally allowed to have that weapon on their person's at all times giving them opportunity to use it to cause harm.
The law needs to change making all bladed weapons religious or not illegal to be carried on the streets!
