'Catastrophic failure' of 3D-printed gun in Oz Police test

There really really weren't 130,000 knife deaths. For 2011/2012, there were ~200 knife deaths (House of Commons Standard Note SN/SG/4304). You are a factor of 650 out, which is quite impressive. There were 130,000 knife crimes, according to that noted devote of accurate statistics, the Daily Mail. To conflate crimes and deaths seems a bit much. All in all, your attempts to spread FUD on this are ill-advised, and, due to heightened stress, breaking down of community support structures etc, possibly more likely to lead to a greater number of premature deaths than the knives themselves, it could be argued.
