      Only a caution for taking a knife to school after a history of attacking girls. The murder of this child was preventable.

    2. Ah I can see how a serial criminal knife enthusiast just really needed a hug. Such a shame it didn’t work and he went on to kill. No one could have predicted this /s

      How the fuck are we going to get away from people taking knives to resolve disagreements ?

      When I was his age, disagreements were, generally, resolved with fists. (Though I understand this was probably not possible with this particular case).

      Nowadays, you don’t get beaten up, you die.

      so there were clear acts of deranged behaviour from this coward but nobody stepped in. it’s so sad, but unfortunately, what did they expect was going to happen?

      When I grew up most of the boys had pen knives. Quite a lot had airguns. Everyone had access to weapons – steak knives, carving knives from the kitchen. If there was a fight, weapons rarely would be used. It was like there was a universally agreed limit to how far you’d go. Even kicking in the balls was considered out of order.

      Access to weapons is not the problem. It’s the readiness to use them in disputes. It’s like people no longer understand that their actions have consequences – or don’t care about the consequences.

      What an awful excuse for a person. That girls poor parents must be devastated (I know that’s probably a massive understatement)

      He could be 40 and back on the streets, unlike the poor girl he attacked. He shouldn’t come on ever
