“The pointed knives, mostly available in the kitchens, pose a very real risk of being tragically used as weapons on our streets. A simple yet effective change, replaceing our kitchen knife with round people, can remove this ability for danger.
“If we all make a small change in our homes, together we can play a powerful role in preventing future tragedies.”
