Knives crackdown may sever ties with history

I'd like to see what the Sikh community in Scotland has to say about this, since some Sikhs carry a small dagger (a kirpan) on their person for religious reasons, to remind them of their commitment to fight for social justice & freedom.

As I recall the Sikhs will be exempted for religious and cultural reasons. Hmmm. Lets start a new religion, The First Church of the Sword and make wearing a sword mandatory for the Faith.
