>LONDON - A 27-foot sculpture made out of 100,000 knives could be placed on the fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar Square in tribute to victims of knife crime. The sculpture, named "Knife Angel," was created in Oswestry, Shropshire, by the British Ironwork Centre. It took two years to build.
>The knives were handed in by 41 police forces around the country during amnesties and confiscations.
>The campaign, "Save a Life, Surrender Your Knife," and the statue aims to raise awareness of the growing issue of knife crime throughout the UK.
>"The monument was created for one purpose, to highlight this extensive problem. Both government and the educational system need to open their eyes to the epidemic," t he British Ironwork Centre's website says.
>knock statue over >it crumbles into pieces >free knives by the hundreds.

on a more serious note, this looks like a statue of a dystopian future

Do """journalists""" not realize how fucking ridiculous people look making that pose?
Luis Torres
Is this like the Jow Forumsube but for knife violence?
Matthew Smith
Maybe they should try banning knives. They need common sense knife control.

I hope it comes to life and cleanses London

What would happen if we united it with the Jow Forumsube?

UK realizes a knife is just a sharp piece of metal, right? You don't need any special industry to make one. Collecting them does nothing to reduce the overall count of basic tools used commonly used for cooking and survival.
It's like asking people to turn in their rocks. "A life can't be thrown. Turn in that stone!"

>knife angel
It amazes me that artists can work on a piece for years (or at least they used to) but put no original thought whatsoever into naming the thing

Looks like a dark souls boss.
Chase Evans
This is really bad optics. It's glorifying knife crime, like something a gangster would buy
Carson Scott
Oi mate, I'm talking at you, bin that fookin statue.

here's a (you). your post is underrated

Lord of Knives, nice

Assuming everyone with a knife will attack someone.
Jaxon Ross
Too many people for the UK to support via hunting alone anyway it doesn't really matter. If they can't support their own food growth and transport from elsewhere they mostly starve.
Ayden Davis
edgy
Benjamin Thomas
Lol such a joke, I couldn't imagine not having a nice. How do you open candy bar wrappers or unscrew screws with no knife?
You should be ashamed uk.
Kevin Morgan
knife*
Christopher Garcia
It also shows how devious and evil your government is. They know the violence and murders are caused by niggers and pakis, but they blame the violence on knives.
You know how easy it is to make a knife? It's the goto weapon in prison because shivs take 5 mins to make.
Wyatt Kelly
Holy shit, it looks super dystopian
Nathan Richardson
BAN ASSAULT KNIVES
Adam Williams
That thing is terrifying. Reminds me of the guncube
Typical control-freak beauracracy dressing up an immoral law with catchy "art." The police don't crack down on criminals, only honest citizens. It'll Be two generations at most until the UK, the land of Locke, Blackstone, and Burke is reduced to absolutely anarchy.
if anything, it makes me want to stab people even more
Evan Hernandez
My first thought, too. They made the Shrike.
Michael Perez
It’s anarch tyranny of the ‘managerial state’
Samuel Francis argued that the problems of managerial state extend to issues of crime and justice. In 1992, he introduced the word “anarcho-tyranny” into the paleocon vocabulary.[11] He once defined it this way: “we refuse to control real criminals (that's the anarchy) so we control the innocent (that's the tyranny).”[12] Francis argued that this situation extends across the U.S. and Europe. While the government functions normally, violent crime remains a constant, creating a climate of fear (anarchy). He says that “laws that are supposed to protect ordinary citizens against ordinary criminals” routinely go unenforced, even though the state is “perfectly capable” of doing so. While this problem rages on, government elites concentrate their interests on law-abiding citizens. In fact, Middle America winds up on the receiving end of both anarchy and tyranny.[11]
>pass a seemingly retarded law that mandates people to hand over their knives >use acquired knives to make a fucking Golem That's some next-level (((illuminati))) shit right here. Can't wait to see what's coming next. Will it breath acid as well?
Joseph Russell
More ACID. Less KNIVES. ...Is that the message of that Orwellian state?
Is this another God to worship next to the murder cube?
Owen Evans
now thats fuckin satanic if i ever seen it
Ethan Price
>Knife Angel Wow what a creative name. I guess all the Brits worth a damn died in the war.
Brody Harris
wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute. is this bin your knife meme campaign about getting rid of every single knife in your house, or just to getting rid of pocket knives / non kitchen knives.
why do they think this will help, the people turning in knives wouldn't be committing crimes with them, and they aren't like guns where they can shift hands and end up in a criminals hands with a serial number filed off after being stolen. its pretty obvious who is committing most knife crimes there.
While casually scrolling, before I bothered to read anything, I thought it was an image of Bane in the OP. I am beyond help, aren't I?
Jose Hall
One of the main UN room's painting is a not-so-veiled worship of an antichrist post-Christ society. They literally worship the state becoming the new God with forced monoculture on to the entire world. There are other such pieces of NWO communist (forced on the Gentiles) art pieces they put in the open in certain locations around the world because it's not easy to tell what the message is at first. Hidden in plain sight. They get off on it.

Leo Ward
Not gonna lie that looks pretty fucking awesome
Nathan Martin
So what gives? Is there actually public support for these kinds of laws in the UK? I guess I'm having trouble understanding how people with this policy agenda get into office if they are not popular.
That looks really cool, we need to take away the virtue signaling propping it up and make it ours though. All hail the Lord of Knives, stab a nigger today!
Jack Morris
That's just a pile of sadly wasted guns. This is the real murder cube.
How do brits cut their food if knives are banned? Serious question.
Daniel Russell
Judging by the name of the place it was made and the length of time it took, this was an effort to teach "urban youths" to weld as part of their community service orders.
Carson Taylor
HOLY SHIT BLACK CUBES WE'RE DOOMED
Chase Morgan
This seems like a great place to get a knife if you need one
>propaganda to stop violent crime made entirely out of surrendered weapons A constant, blaring reminder that the native people around you are disarmed and cannot defend themselves will prevent crime, I'm sure.
Henry Howard
BIN THAT STATUE
would be seriously full on pagan metal to impale people on the wings though
Liam Brooks
Do you mean you're a faggot or you're full of shit?

That's when they start chopping off your hands.

Not mentioning what the sculpture is for, it's really cool. Reminds me of the murdercube

I remember once reading that the point of Soviet propaganda was never to inspire, but to humiliate.

imagine this degenerate thing being paraded around London when the Empire was still around, the creators would probably be hanged for blasphemy

Are you fucking retarded? The only difference would be that instead of niggers, you'd have Irish doing the stabbing.
