I guarantee that if he had broken the glass on that front door, there would have been shots fired.”-Jonathan Guerrette, complaining to city councilors, interestingly the deputy police chief admitted they’ve known about the druggie problem in certain neighborhoods ‘for many years’ yet gave a plethora of excuses why nobody was arrested, supposedly the state law enforcement is going to get involved

Gun Ban Fail: More stabbings in Japan as United Kingdom admits deaths-by-knife are skyrocketing!

Image

30 MAY 2019 (09:41 UTC-07 Tango 06) 09 Khordad 1398/25 Ramadan 1440/26 Ji-Si 4717

Once again, in total gun ban Japan, people were killed by a guy using knives, and it only took “less than 20 seconds”!

Two adults and 15 children (reports vary between 16 and 18 ‘people’ being attacked) were stabbed (killing two of them) while waiting for a school bus, in less than 20 seconds according to Kawasaki police.  The 51 years old attacker then killed himself with a knife.  Contrary to what some U.S. news outlets reported, he did not kill himself as police were chasing him, his body was found after police arrived on scene.

There is also a report that on the same day police in Saitama city shot and killed a 68 years old man after he attacked them with a knife.

And in near total gun ban United Kingdom, death by stabbings have skyrocketed, but don’t blame it on lack of laws, not only does the United Kingdom make it almost impossible for the average citizen to own a gun, but they even have laws regarding the ownership and registration of knives.

The taxpayer funded (through a ‘license’ to watch) BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) reports the number of fatal stabbings the highest since Home Office records began in 1946.

Just this month of May has experienced dozens of knife (and baseball bat) attacks.  Here’s a little selection of U.K. news media reports,

The Star: Police seal off Sheffield street after man is stabbed on Shiregreen estate

Liverpool Echo:A teen stabbed with his own knife

The Sun: Knife gangs keeping ‘scoreboard’ of violence

Somali parents are sending their kids back to war-torn Africa as it’s SAFER than knife crime-riven UK

Telegraph: Scotland Yard criticised over knife crime after another teenager is stabbed to death

BBC: Is austerity causing rising knife crime in Birmingham?

Independent: Teenager chased down and killed

Daily Mail: Newly-wed husband, 24, who was about to become father for first time was stabbed to death in front of horrified shoppers in Tesco car park

It should be noted that even leftist liberal United Kingdom news media admitted that the overwhelming majority of violent crimes in their imperialist country involved no weapons at all!

Even the U.S. military is short on education employees.  Joint Base Elmendorf–Richardson has put out a call for help, citing lack of child development center teachers, cooks and food service workers.  In fact they have as many as 30 full-time jobs available, and it’s severely affecting their on-base child care ops: “Currently, we only have one [center] at full capacity, three at partial capacity and one temporarily closed due to a lack of workers….”-Tina Roberts, program manager

“If you have a love for children, you can advance quickly in childcare. A high school diploma or equivalent and a couple of references is all you need to apply…..  From start to finish, the pre-employment timeline is about 14 days, and we try to make it as beneficial and smooth as possible. During the process, we educate our applicants about the many benefits of working for the CDC along with giving them a paid-for physical, immunizations and background check…..  If eligible new hires already have a child development associate (CDA) credential we can bring them in as a target level, which starts out at $15.87 per hour.”-Meghan Govin, non-appropriated fund assistant director

The small state is turning to a military program called Troops to Teachers to deal with teacher shortages.  Connecticut Army National Guard Sergeant First Class Benjamin Simon just finished the program: “Teaching is definitely the hardest thing I have ever done in my entire life. You have to be dedicated, and you have to have thick skin. There’s a lot of trial and error. Composure is so important. You have to understand you’re working with kids. These aren’t NCOs and Privates who have gone through Basic Training. Every child has different sensibilities, different backgrounds, different learning styles and it’s on you as a teacher to mold yourself to meet their needs.”
