Not seen a thread about this.

I think this man is incredibly brave and clever, and his efforts should be applauded.

Every day I see a new report about a stabbing. I haven’t really seen anything concrete that the ‘powers that be’ are doing to tackle issues.

This man may not be solving the root of the issue, but every knife he takes is one less knife to end up in someone’s body. It’s not perfect, and it’s risky, but it’s something.

I think people like this, if given the support and resources, could do wonders for society.

It's really brave and he is making a difference, just as one person. He must be making such a strong and positive impression on the young people he's meeting, too.

Thanks for sharing this good story, a little light in the gloom with the almost daily reports of stabbings and murders.
