Knife crime

It appears it is on the rise in schools. So I think the answer is to put door frame metal detectors like in airports. They would be detected on the way in to school. It may sound harsh but it could save lives. Even x ray conveyors are quick to spot would be thugs...

Apparently, some schools (inner-city) have already installed them, but they're not compulsory...

Sad times, in which we live...when kids not only carry knives, but are prepared to use them...

Even Macron over there in France said we are encouraging them as he takes £millions off us for trying to stop the boats..
My sons family had a phonecall from a Hebburn school last week giving them a warning that there has been a man following the pupils.
Ellison Hall is housing a lot of male Invaders so that could be a clue. I also heard these Invaders hang around Fountains Park opposite Aldi on a night time. WHY?
Ive just read that South Tyneside Councillors have just refused three separate HMO's inc one in Victoria Rd East. WELL DONE COUNCILLORS.

A few years ago when the local supermarkets were giving steak knives and other types out as "rewards" I forecast that young people would take them from the cutlery drawer and carry them for defence!!! That is exactly what's happening here.
