For everyone freaking out over this:
It's a 6 inch metal blade, and he was walking along a public street, holding it unsheathed in front of him. He still had it out in front of him when he approached the police and they arrested him.
I'd expect the same thing for any 6 inch blade being brandished in public, and would be worried about anyone doing such a thing.
- AndrewOMartin 2y agoYeah, that is more or less what the police said. > "We take a zero tolerance to bladed articles in public, and Bray has fallen afoul of this," said Sergeant Spellman of the police's Patrol Investigations Unit, "It is possible to find fidget toys that aren’t six-inch blades. It is possible not to walk down the street holding them out in front of you. With a bit more self-awareness, Bray could have avoided contact with us completely."
- ASalazarMX 2y agoIs it legally a blade if it isn't sharp? I'd think the biggest danger would be similar to any toy, just poking someone's eye.
- croes 2y agoThe tip is sharp enough. But jailtime is too much for being just stupid.
