I think OP may just be pointing out the inconsistency of safety protocols. Or else, noticing that the vendors aren't being very considerate of the 'common sense knife control' campaigns just across the channel.
Very true. I upvoted the OP because this will become an issue that the media focuses on instead of the actual issue of crime in relation to violent migrants in France.
I still think that young people should have memories of their Olympic games to take with them throughout their lives and a knife is a more useful tool than a vacuum flask.
Lots of people die, or are attacked, each year with knives. On occasion it will be an Olympic, or other event, banded knife. People are poisoned all the time too - I'm sure some of them are so by branded flasks.
Punish the criminals instead of the innocent is what the law is all about. It's a shame we seem to have to learn that again.
