If you've been thinking “Jesus Christ, there have been a lot of fucking stabbings lately,” you're not wrong.

There have.

After listening to this shit day in and day out, and talking with people who are dealing with the same shit on a daily basis, the consensus is pretty damn hard to miss:

The knives are out. And they're coming out a lot more often.

This isn't me pretending I have some magical fucking spreadsheet proving a statistical increase. It's what we're hearing, what we're seeing, and what people working the streets are noticing.

Whatever the reason, lately it seems like damn near every day somebody's deciding that whatever argument they're having would be better settled with a fucking knife.

Have a nice day
