The new gun control is now alive in London. You can be stopped and frisked by London's best bobbies for to see if you are packing. Acid attacks get a mention but no acid control measures yet implemented.
I can only imagine how the frisking will be meted out, but I'm going to guess the knife problem will be getting worse in London.
The stylish Londoner will be sporting custom titanium chain mail and carrying an acid neutralization kit this season.
"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed."
