After laying a white rose at the site of the Diversity Festival slashing that left three dead and eight wounded, Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised rapid action would be taken against knives.
Right now, people in Germany can carry knives up to 4.7 inches long. The law will be modified so that they can only carry knives up to 2.4 inches long. No one appears to have considered the possibility that Muslim terrorists on the way to killing as many infidels as possible might violate the law and carry a concealed knife of 4 inches or longer. Such thoughts are unthinkable.

Even is the length is reduced by fiat to 0.24 inches , it is not going to make any difference. They are lowering speed limits to prevent bank robbers from escaping. Good grief, don't they see this??

For thousands of years before the invention of gun powder millions were killed with whatever was at hand to inflict damage. Inanimate objects do not kill people, people kill people.

Knife control. RIght. How about you try some immigrant control? Especially when the immigrants in question come from a group that espouse hateful, violent rhetoric.

In related new, German Member of Bundestag (German parliament) Ricarda Lang, head of the Green Party, demands fork control because forks made her a giant fat pig.

(She is being mocked because Gab owner was arrested for refusing to comply with a subpoena to dox a poster who committed the "crime" of mocking for being a fat pig.)
Eyewash warning on the picture.

THESE are the people who almost took over the world twice, and invented many of the world's best and most iconic weapons?
I am ashamed for them and I'm not even German.

Knife control: who couldn't see that coming. Then axe control. Will we have Muslim control?

I am sure all good Germans will comply and inform the appropriate authorities of anyone they know who is violating this new directive. Net result - no change to future fatalities.

Yep, you can spread butter (if you can afford it) on your toast with your index finger...no problem...I think the same stuff is happening in England...it's always about items (guns, knives, clubs, etc) but NEVER about people control....

The burning question is why are those violent people there? They need to take a page out of Orban's and Sweden's book and start deporting them. Their ideals are not congruent with Western Culture and feel they need to kill people who don't agree with them. "Raus mitt allen"

What's next, banning box cutters with half-inch blades? Everybody knows that those are harmless. The leadership of Germany is just as stupid as that of 98% of the rest of the West. Maybe you should focus on their religion instead of their tools.

The stupidity boggles the mind. It’s already against the law to murder someone, no matter how it’s done. Has Scholz ever seen a box-cutter?

Keeping the Left in control will eventually outlaw self defense of any kind. Even direct eye contact will be considered assault.

Will the German police swoop down on Octoberfest and confiscate every blade over 2.4 inches? How dumm (stupid) can you get?

In line with OP and #2, how blind does one have to be not to notice that the places with the strictest gun control are also those with the highest number of shootings? Being a Progressive means never having to admit that your policies don't work, and enables you to play the "it didn't work because our measures weren't strong enough" card indefinitely.

A 2.4 inch knife stabs someone or cuts a throat just a badly as a 4 inch knife. Sure, the wound won't be as deep; but a slit throat is a slit throat. You still bleed out. Will Germany also ban automobiles because the Muslim migrants run pedestrians over or set car bombs?

Fast forward. If you order a steak at a German restaurant, you will have to pay a carving fee to have it cut up, since there will be no knives on the table.
