Jeez...that's so impactful for the kids and parents.
I think that's a good example of the increase in the police knife figures.
Others start carrying because they feel threatened or because it's 'cool' or the 'tough guy' routine or such like.
Yep, a year or so later one of the kids in my school was stabbed to death aged 16 presumably because that particular undercurrent of fear and violence persisted for a while.
It was a bit like being in a war zone which I am sure is the experience of lots of teenagers in Croydon and the like.
On the plus side it went away in time.
