Short story, college kid gets previously robbed of his PS3 and two laptops. Some poor Thief-er-man fella either heard it was a sweet spot or returned for a second money haul. Burglar lunges at him kid grabs his katana and slices bad dude's money grubbing hand almost clean off and spilled the guys guts all over the garage floor with one blow. Long story Source <-vid link there too Hopkins student kills intruder with samurai sword, police say Off-campus house was burglarized Monday; suspect recently freed from county jail.

The Man Who Sold The World

Wow. Haven't heard of this happening too often. Literal death by the sword. Not surprised though. A real one is basically a 3 foot razor. |

Makes sense to use a sword in that situation. Course if I was a robber I'd rather be shot than sliced in half. |

Most of them aren't real though. Most of them are replicas. There was a spate of attacks by 'samurai swords' in the UK last year, so the government decided to ban real ones. The ones that cost grand each, or are otherwise only bought by martial artists. The replicas, which most people are killed by, are still easily buyable. Isn't the law fun? |

@kkarbo: I thought replica's are banned now as well? I was going to buy one but they're illegal. EDIT: In the UK. Edited by Roy, Sep 16 2009, 08:37:52 PM.

Oh yeah, they are. Well, still. Pointless laws. Besides, banning stuff doesn't work. It's not in the news anymore, but that's probably because reporters have been told not to cover the stories. 'samurai sword' killing has likely not went down. |

I plan on later on in life taking up a martial arts class with a bit of kendo. Had a chance to a while back and did it for a while....but dropped out do to money concerns. Should have stayed with it...Aikido is probably my favorite martial art do to it not being very physical and using energy people exert against you against them.....course most martial arts do that. |

And it means I can't get a lifesize Buster Sword. ![]() EDIT: And its not like I would be able to do any damage to anyone with a replica Buster Sword anyway. They would be able to kill me 10 times over by the time I was able to lift the thing .

The Man Who Sold The World

I took Kenjutsu/Battojutsu for a while, but to be honest, I never thought I'd see it put to any good use other than personal indulgence and recreation. Most people don't know how to use one past what they saw in their favorite animes. They are not banned in the U.S., obviously. Funny though. Banning guns in the UK leads to a barrage of attacks by sword, so they ban those too? What's next? The banning of sticks and stones? |

How can you say banning guns = barrage of attacks from swords, any proof of that? Guns have been banned for a very long time and the sword thing has only happened recently. To reiterate my point about the Buster Sword: http://www.gametrailers.com/user-movie/real-buster-sword-replica/180353

Correction. It's only been in the news recently. Just like Knife stabbings. That has been going on for ages. Guess The Sun's editors were drunk one day and decided 'I KNOW, LET'S SAY BLACK PEOPLE STABBING EACH OTHER IN LONDON IS A NEW THING ON THE UPRISE' |

I didn't say I had proof. I was asking a question. It is my opinion that it would be less likely to incur a "spate of attacks by samurai swords" if guns were more accessible. However, this is a plus that criminals are a bit less dangerous weilding a piece of shit 440 stainless steel blade made from Taiwan than a .357 magnum, but it's also akin to what I've said in the past. If you ban one thing, people are going to find something else to use and if you ban those too, people are going to find something other than that to use. —- I made a last minute edit. |

Replica swords are a pretty new thing (as in, they've only gotten popular in the last 10-15 years perhaps less) so I'd still say its a pretty new thing.
Well it took them fucking years to find something new to use...I still don't put this down to the banning of guns but if it were, i'd rather have a "spate of attacks by samurai swords" than constantly a lot of attacks by guns. I may be misinterpreting you here, but are you trying to justify legalising guns in the UK? Edited by Roy, Sep 16 2009, 09:29:33 PM.

Well thats OK then. Not that many criminals are armed with swords anyway. Well, were. EDIT: I mean, we're talking about 5 deaths here, its hardly a spate. Edited by Roy, Sep 16 2009, 09:32:46 PM.

Yeah, probably a lot less than the ones who still have guns, actually. |

The brits still have guns all over there. Just makes it more lucrative and encourages breaking the law when you make them illegal. |
