Another slashing with deadly weapons case. It can happen anywhere at any time so long as you have such 'macho-bravo hot air balloons' usually with gang links, out to cause trouble. There are still many of such out there, with little education ( not that education was not available to them..they prefer to be educated on the streets), no proper family or parental control, no motivation, low self-esteem etc.. .

"Maybe we should use way-side trees..."

"Like they are used to in the West..."

(Glaring errors really! Sorry.)

Yes you are right, young or old, murderers must not get away.
