Increase minimum sentence for carrying a knife to 10 years

Petition Details

Create a law that increases minimum sentences for knife possession to 10 years.

Additional Information

We believe knife crime has sky rocketed. Innocent people have been killed at bus stops or going for a run in parks. Some children carry knives because they think they need it for safety against others. We are worried that our families are not safe.
