This is my local station; it's five minutes away. Tragic.

I followed the link. Yet another knife killing by a teenager. What is it that they are learning, or watching on their smart phones, or thinking is reality nowadays? Do they think that, like in a video game, the characters can just get up ready to play again? What conversations, if any, go on at these youngsters' homes which do not instil into them the reality of how human bodies do not live after fatal stabbings.

These are questions that I ask myself, too, Susan. I also would like to know why on earth they think that they are carrying a knife so that they can defend themselves.

One night, not long after the above-noted incident, police shut down the main pedestrian area of Hounslow and did a large "Stop and Search" operation. Eighty-seven knives and other potentially lethal objects were confiscated from both males and females aged between 13 and 68!

And people wonder why I am reluctant to go shopping after dark?
