It's not a ban - it's a catch-phrase to a program designed to enhance awareness and education. Meh.

"While projects encouraging the surrender of knives are not a single solution to violence, they have an important role to play in inspiring communities to get behind education and preventative measures."

"Among the weapons given up ... a homemade blade screwed together with razor blades and large knives."

But will the droogs participate?

And so it goes...
