Ban on samurai swords becomes law

April 9th, 2008 by Klintron

Legislation against selling, making, hiring or importing samurai swords in England and Wales has come into force.

Those breaking the law face six months in jail and a £5,000 fine. Carrying a sword in public is already illegal.

Exemptions will cover swords which are used for re-enactments or antique weapons kept on display by collectors.

    England is a pile petty fascist bureaucrats who shit on Orwell, Huxley and the other non-conformists who once made the UK culturally relevant by whittling away possibility that the news telly might scare old nans. It’s a country ran by and for scared little morons. Thank history for America who is still many steps from as dire a situation. May a generation of Alexes rise and smash the empty vapidity produced by its leaders wet-dreams of Big Brotherhood for all.
