In light of the recent murders through senseless knife stabling PEACEMAKERS Patrols are once more pleading and calling for a ban on the carrying of knives.
Street Patrols Leader the Reverend Palmer, says, “There needs to be more done publicly to de-Herofy knife carrying and knife related crimes.” (De-Herofy is a term developed by PEACEMAKERS in response to knife, guns, and street violence crimes) Ms Palmer is calling for all parents, and grandparents in the UK, to make it their duty in the to outlaw the carrying of weapons. “This is not something that is told” she goes on to say, “we mostly think, well, my children or my grandchildren should know better. But as we can see, they do not.”
Speaking out very passionately about recent events, ‘The Rev’ as she is affectionately known, writes: “It is awful the tragedy that goes on year after year. The recent stabbing of Mikey Roynon really got to me. Yes, this one stuck a chord deep in me.
I had not heard this young man’s name before his untimely death, and true, we are not of the same skin colour or ethnicity, but none of these matters in justice. What matters is that another innocent young life was struck down, and once again, way, way too soon!
Funerals for our youths are becoming a glorified, regular, expected event. This is sick. Our world needs healing. We need to take responsibility, parental responsibility, to drive it home that carrying a weapon to protect yourself simply translates you are about to commit murder! Premeditated murders are what these are, and they need to be treated as such!
There is no way to continue to ‘romancify’ these senseless cowardly acts of violence. Knife crimes, youth on youth violence leading to death, and mass murders in schools, MUST cease!
We need to unite in prayer, as well step up and campaign for justice!
We need to educate ourselves and that of the young upcoming generation that human life matters. Personally, I do not wish to ever hear about another youth fatality, except it be for some medical reason.
Knife crimes have got to stop, and soon. How? Handheld games on small screen which glorifies perpetual knifing for fun and territory, adults and youths arming themselves with knives and guns on our streets, mass gang murders on the large screens, police brutality, as well as the sanctioning of vampirism, mass torture, and murder, by churches as the only way to eternal life.
We need to STOP. We need to awake as a species. Awake to the truth of what LIFE is all about, by beginning an open global, national, and local conversation, around the importance and value of a human life. Of course, this would mean looking at how we have historically exalted war, and the slaughter of thousands of people in the name of peace and justice, when the opposite is true.”
