Carry Respect, Not A Blade

No Safe Place

It is against the law to carry a knife or any weapon, even for self-protection. People who carry weapons are more likely to be injured themselves. Being caught with a knife in a public place could result in up to four years in custody.

There is no ‘safe’ place to stab someone. The human body is full of blood vessels, and even a small cut can be fatal. Any act that causes a fatal injury in this way would be considered murder

Loosing 40% blood loss is lethal.

Bleeding-out time varies from 90 seconds to 5 mins without intervention

No 'Safe' Place

The human body is made up of a complex network of blood vessels, including veins and arteries, which supply blood to the entire body. Damage to a vein or artery causes bleeding, and the severity depends on the type of vessel and its location.

Stabbing a knife or sharp object into an artery can cause catastrophic bleeding, leading to rapid blood loss. If the source of the bleeding is not identified and controlled, death can occur within 90 seconds.

A stab wound to internal organs such as the heart, spleen, bowel, or liver can also result in life-changing disabilities or fatal injuries

Joe sustained seven stab wounds across his body. Some were small cuts to his hands, suspected to be defensive wounds.

Two of the wounds penetrated Joe’s internal organs and the left internal iliac vein. Both of these injuries were classified as fatal.

What is Joint Enterprise?

I

Joint enterprise is a legal principle that can make a person criminally responsible for a crime committed by someone else, even if they didn’t directly carry it out. Essentially, if two or more people agree to commit a crime, or if one person encourages or assists another in committing a crime, everyone involved can be held liable.

Here’s a breakdown:

  1. Shared plan or agreement – If you plan a crime together, everyone in the group can be charged for actions taken by others in line with that plan.

  2. Assistance or encouragement – Even if you didn’t commit the crime yourself, helping, encouraging, or being present can make you guilty.

  3. Foreseeable consequences – If a crime happens that was a foreseeable outcome of the plan, you could still be held responsible.
