    GMP said officers were responding to a call that a man had been seen with a knife.

    “He was subsequently stopped and a small sickle, a large dagger which was in a sheath on a belt, and a peeling knife, were seized,” the force said.

    Good to see the police openly lying… He didn’t have a large dagger on him. It was a trowel.

        Exactly, that’s absolutely a knife. A huge one.

        It may also be used as a trowel, but looks at it, that looks like something crocodile dundee would throw at someone.

        A guy walking around in public with that strapped to his belt in a tactical looking holster is just asking for trouble. He was probably looking forward to the day the cops got him for it. He can’t have been so stupid to have that on and think “this is totally fine, nobody would ever be concerned by this”.

          He wasn’t in public. Read the god damned article. He was at his own house and even had other gardening shit with him including vegetables.
