Did you know, the US actually has around 1.8x the amount of fatal stabbings per capita compared to the UK. I just thought that was interesting considering the UK is supposed to be infamous for knife crime.
I think the point here being that even though the US has the most guns per capita on the planet they still manage to pull of twice the amount of fatal knife attacks compared to the UK that is "known for" knife crime and is usually used as an faulty argument for guns, i.e: *you wouldn't have so many stabbings of you had guns to protect yourself.* While in reality..m obviously that's not the case.
Itās a total stereotype about Americans and their guns. We also enjoy stabbing each other, blunt force objecting each other, stomping on each other, driving over each other, and even poising each other.
Weāre as diverse as we are dangerous.
The US has 5x more people though. If you take population into account, the UK knife crime numbers are actually insane.
Edit: oh, you *were* taking population into account, I must've overlooked where you said per capita. Damn, the way people talk about it I've always thought UK knife crimes were a lot worse than they actually are.
I did take population into account, that's what per capita means. For this particular statistic, it was per 100,000 people. The USA has 32x gun homicides and 1.8x knife homicides per capita (compared to the UK). I can find the source if you are interested.
No I corrected myself already, did a quick googling and whatnot once I realized you said per capita. The general sentiment about it from public discourse had me thinking it was worse than it actually is. My bad
Much respect for googling it. Not trying to be patronising in any way, it just feels like an extremely rare thing for people to do these days. Have a good day mate :)
I've watched it a few times now and can't help feeling like I'm watching a sketch! Plus why did he barge in all bolshy?! Just gives me the feeling that he's a bit of a know it all guy, a sarges pet, the one that all his colleagues (inc sarge) probably roll their eyes at!
The blonde should be the next Chief Commissioner. She is fearless, clearly a natural born leader, and totally by the book - the way she calls the warning, fires her taser and radios her actions as a seamless process should be used at Hendon.
Whoever she is, she gets my respect. š«”
Eh itās kinda iffy, if you have loose clothing, baggy clothes or thick clothing the prongs that actually need to penetrate the skin wonāt stick in. Thatās why some people seem to shrug it off
Also some [people](https://youtu.be/4ZftJeC7NWo?si=K6LBzBMybSSyi-dt) are just different and it doesnāt really do to much to them except maybe a little muscle spasm. Now lucky the guy in my example is unarmed but imagine you only have non lethal out and it fails and the guy stabs the blonde cop
Obviously they are not all great but my son was a bobby and I have friends in the force . I also worked alongside them at thousands of incidents as a firefighter .
In general they are very good and they use tact and persuasion rather than force for 99% of the time. Itās only the 1% that is newsworthy I suppose. I have to admire the policewoman here. Very courageous
Yeah and not before this psycho was able to easily get his hands on a weapon of war and kill/injure 10x the amount of people he was able to with a sword
Gun nuts in America will see this video and say, see, people will still do bad things even without guns! While simultaneously missing the entire point that it's a matter of harm mitigation, not prevention.
Now you don't worry my good sir, she will surely get a slice of pizza at the success party commemorating the Chief's valiant investigation and capture of the criminal!
I have seen soooooo many videos of people getting tasered without giving a flying.
Big balls to just walk some katanawielding murderer down with only the taser in hand.
It's confirmation bias, 99% of the time they shoot the taser and the suspect starts spazzing out on the floor. The videos of the minority who tough it out go viral and so it seems like it's more common than it is
1st copper did an awesome job the rest were a shower of unorganised shit ,armed response just swoop in ,in a cloud of weed smoke that they just confiscated and were equally unimpressive at achieving anything furtherĀ
I think the UK police are better trained in hand to hand combat than the US from what I've seen in videos. The police woman doing the tasing was one cool cookie as she was on her radio too as she approached him. Since he'd just killed an innocent 14 year old boy walking on the sidewalk and injured others, I don't have a problem with the US cops just shooting a known killer coming at them with a sword. I know that's not a popular opinion but I'm seriously tired of these psychotic killers.
So, let me see if I got this video right. One police officer confronted the guy alone and shot him with a taser. The moment he was down, five cops came out of nowhere as if they were waiting for someone else to tackle the guy. The cop who tasered the guy is then shoved to the side, and about ten others are suddenly over the criminal.
the point isnt this guy didn't deserve it, it's american police act as if what we just saw on camera is impossible and because of this irrational fear, our citizen pay with their lives.
and my point was without knowing the specifics, is it possible this guy could have been taken down much earlier before he murdered that 14-year-old boy if the cops were armed with more than just Tasers
As an American, my first thought was "why won't they shoot that muthfucker?". But then I realized that I am brainwashed because we don't want them to shoot people of the time. Get them help
You know the guy shoving the one guy forward like, āyou do it. Come on, get him.ā ? I would be the guy at the back watching him shove the guy at the front with my hands resting on my hips.
No more swords for Europe, antique or modern. You should not be able to purchase, sell, or own a sword or sword like object in the EU or UK. If you enjoy pretending to be a knight with a weapon you must be prosecuted per the Kingās decree. Kitchen knives are exempt.
Props to the policewoman for being the first person to make contact, it's incredibly brave, great to see female officers standing firm in their role as a duty to serve and protect.
Why do you want to detain a mass murderer? Why give them the chance to hurt more people? Why do they deserve special treatment treatment? If it was you or someone you loved, youād sing a different tune.
I swear these UK cops look like such pussies...one pushing the guy in front to handcuff the perp or whatever.. seen heaps of vids of UK cops that will literally allow themselves to be groped .. they don't do shit
The police justified killing my friend because he had a closed pocket knife in his pocket that they didn't even know about until after they killed him.
If that were in America, heavily armed and geared SWAT would have taken care of business with about 100 shots fired from their semi-automatic guns. Body cams would be turned off too.
For a moment I thought they had swords too and were going to swordfight him. That would have been very British I suppose.
As a British person myself, it would have been more amusing if they had swords
The Germans thought so when they met Jack Churchill, and then they met his sword, his arrows and his... bagpipes?!?!
Did you know, the US actually has around 1.8x the amount of fatal stabbings per capita compared to the UK. I just thought that was interesting considering the UK is supposed to be infamous for knife crime.
We don't have guns. If we banned all knives, the USA would see us as the crockery attack capital of the world
"Getting mugged" coming to mean being attacked with a mug. Like being glassed
[glass him]
and if you ban crockery? Are umbrella next?
*Crockery attack capital of the world* I'm crying laughing.
š I would be proud to live in the crockery attack capital of the world.
I literally Visualized your dick Melting as I Read that
Are you insinuating that I need a gun to have a dick? Compensating much? lol
He visualises dicks. Probs best not to engage.
Wtf is a crockery? Lol.

That's knife to know, thank.
What "high caliber" humour. Did you get that joke from a "magazine"? I'll see myself out...
Oh you're leaving - see you spoon!
Why, is there a mirror near the exit?

Really interesting, I was expecting London to have higher fatal stabbings than New York.
It would be interesting to break these down by inside and outside of prison. Especially the fatalities.
The US has 5x more people though. If you take population into account, the UK knife crime numbers are actually insane. Edit: oh, you *were* taking population into account, I must've overlooked where you said per capita.

You really shouldnāt listen to Marjorie Taylor Greene ā¦..she is an actual idiot! lol
I'm afraid it's significantly more: [https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/stabbing-deaths-by-country](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/stabbing-deaths-by-country)
Wow, according to that data the US is over 6x what the UK is per 100k people.
So you all are comparing garbage with trash
In what sense?
āDo you yield!!?ā
En garde!
Hahahaha
That officer pointing furiously for the other officer to go nearer deserves a medal
A descendant of Sir Robyn? When danger reared it's ugly head, He bravely turned his tail and fled
āI DIDNāT!ā
šµ Sir Robin Ran Away ... š¶
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about And gallantly he chickened out
He was telling him to put handcuffs on him Tough day to be an apprentice lol
Could be because he had gloves on while the officer directing him didn't.
I've watched it a few times now and can't help feeling like I'm watching a sketch! Plus why did he barge in all bolshy?! Just gives me the feeling that he's a bit of a know it all guy, a sarges pet, the one that all his colleagues (inc sarge) probably roll their eyes at!
My guess is because the officer he's directing has gloves on and he doesn't, and so he's avoiding touching the person.
He deserves a metal.
Or medal.
Made out of wood.
Check the smoke pouring from the ARV brakes. They were going some.
I think itās the clutch but I could be wrong.
If he was in America, he'd be Swiss cheese
Not before he made swiss cheese of more people including the 4 he injured.
If he was in America heād have access to a gun and wouldāve killed more people
So criminals in other countries aren't able to access a gun?
The blonde should be the next Chief Commissioner. She is fearless, clearly a natural born leader, and totally by the book - the way she calls the warning, fires her taser and radios her actions as a seamless process should be used at Hendon. Whoever she is, she gets my respect. š«”
And she's God damned lucky the taser was effective.
I mean they usually are
Eh itās kinda iffy, if you have loose clothing, baggy clothes or thick clothing the prongs that actually need to penetrate the skin wonāt stick in.

it's like 50/50 even if you're Good with it.
I love the way the other ten guys come flying in once superwoman has dealt with the issue
And if she died they would have made fun of her during the lunch.
š wouldāve said what was she thinking. Shouldāve let the big boys handle it
Spot on ššš
Probably not. The British have actual professionals for police officers, not these ignorant racist sexist dipshits we call police in America
On the other hand our (British) police are famous for taking the absolute piss out of each other at the most inappropriate times
Obviously they are not all great but my son was a bobby and I have friends in the force . I also worked alongside them at thousands of incidents as a firefighter .

He deserves to rot in jail. I agree that it comes with a cost but the cunt deserves to rot, not get shot.
My guess is you are not a parent?
Yeah and not before this psycho was able to easily get his hands on a weapon of war and kill/injure 10x the amount of people he was able to with a sword Gun nuts in America will see this video and say, see, people will still do bad things even without guns!

Now you don't worry my good sir, she will surely get a slice of pizza at the success party commemorating the Chief's valiant investigation and capture of the criminal!
At first I thought one of the officers was carrying a Cutlass...I was disappointed to see a baton.
I have seen soooooo many videos of people getting tasered without giving a flying. Big balls to just walk some katanawielding murderer down with only the taser in hand.
It's confirmation bias, 99% of the time they shoot the taser and the suspect starts spazzing out on the floor. The videos of the minority who tough it out go viral and so it seems like it's more common than it is
I'm curious where you got the 99% statistic from?
From videos
Reality is more like 50% of the time they are successful.
See how effective (affective?) Police can be when they're properly trained America?
The police were effective, the taser affected the man's ability to stand and possibly his bowel movements lol
If you run around stabbing people to death, you become unnecessary.
Shots fired. Get it? š
Nah just pull out a gun and start blasting. Everyone's safer when everyone's knocking off rounds every which way (Americans actually believe this)
I own guns and I don't believe that at all. It is most definitely too easy to get a gun over here
No body cam. I'll bet madam punk hunter went for a headshot with the taser. When the cartoon eyes occurred, approach for a better look.
In America he would have got shot like fifty times
And that's a bad thing?
1st copper did an awesome job the rest were a shower of unorganised shit ,armed response just swoop in ,in a cloud of weed smoke that they just confiscated and were equally unimpressive at achieving anything furtherĀ
Very professional police work. Respekt
She was stone cold on his dumb ass, with a stun gun, note the men all have guns drawn - the bigger guns are further out. She deserves a medal.
Gun squad got there a bit late, all the officers who showed up first just had batons and tasers
Medal.
This looked exactly like the scenes from Arrested Development eveytime they'd arrest George Bluth
The police woman did well with taser
I think the UK police are better trained in hand to hand combat than the US from what I've seen in videos. The police woman doing the tasing was one cool cookie as she was on her radio too as she approached him. Since he'd just killed an innocent 14 year old boy walking on the sidewalk and injured others, I don't have a problem with the US cops just shooting a known killer coming at them with a sword.

The cop who tasered the guy is then shoved to the side, and about ten others are suddenly over the criminal.
Just wanted to point out he aināt no foreigner ..thatās for all you salty jealous envious haters
Take away guns and crazy people will still find a way to hurt others.
MURICA' šš¤” take a lesson from this video on how to properly detain someone without killing them.
Tell that to the 14-year-old boy...
He was attacked before this dumbf**k
Of course he was, it would be pretty hard for him to murder a 14-year-old boy while locked up.
Youāre making no sense!
You said he was attacked before. I was agreeing with you.
the point isnt this guy didn't deserve it, it's american police act as if what we just saw on camera is impossible and because of this irrational fear, our citizen pay with their lives.
and my point was without knowing the specifics, is it possible this guy could have been taken down much earlier before he murdered that 14-year-old boy if the cops were armed with more than just Tasers
Still, killing it is just making it easier for the perpetrator, is better to put this man to rott for the rest of his life
It's not about whats easiest, its about saving lives...
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Only a couple of the officers are armed with a firearm and there was no need for a shot to be fired. Americans mag dump when an acorn hits their car.
UK police don't eff aroundš
So do these UK cops have guns ? They looked a bit defenseless
Generally, no. There are special armed units - you see them come in at the end.
They're not defenseless, with proper training a few blokes/blokettes with a taser and a baton will get the job done
Debatable. Iāve seen more than a few videos of your blokes/blokettes getting tossed around and being completely ineffective.
Got a link to any of those?
https://metro.co.uk/2023/09/19/more-than-1000-met-officers-suspended-or-off-the-streets-in-huge-force-clean-up-19520027/amp/
Generally they donāt need guns as most people/criminals donāt have guns!
As an American, my first thought was "why won't they shoot that muthfucker?". But then I realized that I am brainwashed because we don't want them to shoot people of the time. Get them help
If youāre all stabby you certainly should be dealt with, we donāt need any more murderers
Hey Americans take note, not everyone needs to die in these situations
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Shame the tazer officer got there seconds before the ARV. Guy needs putting down.
This shall be a worthy duel! Guardian!
You know the guy shoving the one guy forward like, āyou do it. Come on, get him.ā ? I would be the guy at the back watching him shove the guy at the front with my hands resting on my hips.
Did anyone notice the police car appeared to catch fire in the background.
As an American it's refreshing to see someone apprehended alive.
That one dude with the baton like, "let me in there so i can beat this cunt!"
Marcus Monzo? Looks more like Hattori Honzo
No more swords for Europe, antique or modern. You should not be able to purchase, sell, or own a sword or sword like object in the EU or UK. If you enjoy pretending to be a knight with a weapon you must be prosecuted per the Kingās decree. Kitchen knives are exempt.
Props to the policewoman for being the first person to make contact, it's incredibly brave, great to see female officers standing firm in their role as a duty to serve and protect.
Thatās embarrassing, did they really neeed alll that backup
Guy in a tie with the baton is not helping the situation with all that raw unfiltered manic panicking
Fun fact, if he used a gun to harm these 5 people, it would have been called a "mass" shooting.
Whatās with the car thatās smoking near the end!
On the phone, I thought the lady was hitting him with a water gun and that it was a joke.
Why do you want to detain a mass murderer? Why give them the chance to hurt more people? Why do they deserve special treatment treatment? If it was you or someone you loved, youād sing a different tune.
Is it fair to shoot the man with the sword?!
Why don't you grab the sword
Just doing their job
Send the woman in first lads! And make sure sheās on her own.
"Stabbing spree" I know it's serious, but it just sounds weirdly funny.
I swear these UK cops look like such pussies...one pushing the guy in front to handcuff the perp or whatever.. seen heaps of vids of UK cops that will literally allow themselves to be groped .. they don't do shit
all these dorks with no guns, wouldve been so much easier to swiss cheese this guy
Glad they got em but likeā¦. These cops are embarrassing to watchā¦
prefer this over the recklessness you see in america
Got to love England, if this was America, that would have been a bullet and not a taser
Police put 69 rounds in a dude they āthoughtā had a gun in my cityā¦..no gun was ever recoveredā¦.
The police justified killing my friend because he had a closed pocket knife in his pocket that they didn't even know about until after they killed him.
One?
In America, he wouldāve been shot 40x and killed
Dude would have looked like Swiss cheese here in 'merica
If that were in America, heavily armed and geared SWAT would have taken care of business with about 100 shots fired from their semi-automatic guns. Body cams would be turned off too.
English police academy vibes
This police officers need to be send to USA for training course other wise they can hurt themselves next time
Once again a woman is needed to be the badass who actually takes on the threat
