Welcome to Ingsoc: British Scout Assoc. bans knives...

this is just amazing. i am in my 50s and grew up in eastern north carolina. my father would scold me if i didn't have a pocket knife. i wonder how long until this situation shows up here.
 
Oh this is sad. Just sad. It was Franklin who said, "Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

Guess that's why we decided to play by our own rules.

Not so sure about that. The only reason firearms have not been banned here is because of the 2nd Amendment, and even so it is very difficult or impossible to purchase them in certain places. If firearms go, knives are next.
 
Not so sure about that.

True, true. I suspect one day we too will be a nation of vassals with neither safety nor liberty. We will vote our own rights away little by little. But for today, I can carry a fixed blade and a gun.
 
I love ya guys, besides my own wife and brothers, this is the only place I can go to express righteous indignation at this nonsense without being confronted with blank stares.
 
Since the Scouts are banning knives everywhere now , I'm going to start my own Scouts Organization, one where they are not neutered & effeminated by liberal views, one where a knife is required equipment, along with campfires (banned in certain troops here) , axes and all skills that Lord Baden Powell envisioned will be taught again! knife skills, shelter building, capture the flag, hunting, fishing, firearms safety, cleaning and marksmanship, trapping, skinning, drill & parade, knots, etc etc

not this liberal effeminate sissified crap that they teach now, koombyyah sit around a red lightbulb that mimics a fire, gush how we all winners while praising each other and hugging while learning about bunt cake making and scrapbooking. Pure and utter bull doody :barf::barf::barf::barf::barf::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Lord Baden Powell would be rolling over in his grave in disgust at what his previously fine organization has BEEN turned into by the limpwristedweakspinedliberalsissienazis.

I think the whole concept of politicizing and knee jerk reacting in the scouts (America and abroad) needs to end.

I remember when they just used to teach the kids who to live in the woods and be good citizens, now they are Anti-Gay, Anti-Athiest, Anti-knife and many other things... what the hell?

Do they use shards of chert to cut their wood? How do they cut rope? How do they learn knife, axe, and other blade skills - does the scout master do it for them? What happens with the older folks die off and the young ones know no skills?

what a load of crap:rolleyes::grumpy:
perhaps they ought to ban tarps for fear of smothering.
 
I really dont know what to say to this......

I thought it was bad that it takes me 2 years to get a handgun license.:eek:

well thats simple Tal, without the younguns knowing those skills, they will need the Government to do everything and provide for them, reducing them to mere wage slaves....oh wait, we are almost there now,... :barf:
 
Been done with that movement since they let females in. Another example of male emasculation.

The constant reporting of knife violence by BBC has done wonders for this movement. Just like U.S. liberal media scare tactics stupefy sheeple into thinking that guns kill on their own. Propaganda is and has always been the same, knowing no boundaries.
