What might you base that on? According the to Home Office's latest
report (that I found - 01/02) homicides with guns are equal to or
higher than they were in 98 (the last "amnesty" for guns was THREE
years ago). Therefore there is NO reason to believe this amnesty - or
the ban - will have any impact on the crimes committed with knives
(homicides being chief among them).

As I told you before, and you casually fluffed off because "your ban"
has worked so well, only law-abiding citizens obey laws - criminals,
by definition do NOT.
