Knife crime has spiralled out of control in Britain the last decade. Funny the government never let us see the breakdown of ethnic backgrounds of the people carrying knives and not afraid to use them.

If only blacklivesmatter cared for giving kids a better education rather then race baiting and crt ..kids without fathers have no good influences

Its a sad sad world we live in to today I just wish people would get on with each other instead of being against each other. Anybody carrying a knife or any other dangerous weapons should get life the intent is their to take a life. Lock them up not give them a fine or slap on the wrist

I wonder if GBNews would interview the parent of one of these victims who is more representative of the type of young people being killed as this poor guy Wayne seems to have been an exception.

The "therapy" needs to be given to the parents who are raising the demons who are causing all the bullying and stress. It's like continually fixing defective products turned out by a manufacturer who's machinery is out of whack. Fix the SOURCE.

Birch for carrying a knife, death penalty for murder.
Parential failure, easy divorce, broken homes, drugs and music fuel the violence.

There's a few things people don't want to talk about regarding this subject. The family unit has gone with these people. They have no guidance growing up. Ie no father's to teach them right from wrong. Those said father's lack in personal responsibilities. The government is not a fault. They aren't responsible.

I wonder if GBNews will ever have the guts to examine the correlation between black male violence and single parenthood. No, thought not.

In an American school there was problems with violence local fathers set up a group to come into the school a bit like mentor's the over all affect with there presence reduced the violence were the school is safe they do shifts so they can still work ... I think that might help in the community in giving the young men or boys another way without slipping into a life of crime and drugs I don't know if this would work but I think it is something worth looking into

Oh he was such an angel, BS most deserve what they get..

This has been happening in the US for years. It's been getting worse here with kids having nothing to do.so they start these gangs and start fighting with other gangs. With children carrying knifes to protect themselves. it's all wrong give kids somewhere to come together. like football or boxing 🥊 other sports or computer playing. iam sure some of these things might bring these children together.

Who needs also make better decisions are the drug users. Not drug usrers, no drug dealing. Or make drugs legally binding, everyone can do whatever they want and save lives.

Obviously in terms of crime this needs to be better combatted with more resources and respect for police. I wish in schools there could survivors tales of how bad and dangerous gangs and crime because kids are so naive and easily manipulated
