Deakin University Senior Lecturer Dr Matteo Vergani says terror attacks using knives are on the rise as they are a weapon that is “easy to obtain” without raising “red flags”.

“It is an increasingly common form of terror attack because it is easy to obtain weapons,” he told Sky News. “Unlike bombs, when a terrorist wants to make a bomb and find components it raises red flags - but not with knives.

” Dr Vergani’s comments come after two people were killed and a terrorist was shot dead by police in a stabbing attack on London Bridge in the UK. Three other people were injured in the incident which began early on Friday afternoon, London time.

Read the Koran its in Black and White - strike the infidels at the neck with a knife!!!

No shit Sherlock, brilliant insight!

Deakin University WHAT! real brain surgery needed here. How long is it since knives are used as weapons Now, we need a University to tell us the answer to this difficult question 😪

Better knives than guns.

Saying the obvious

No shit Sherlock 🕵️‍♂️

They keep trying to find the reason why the London attacker. Read his ideology, it hasn't changed. He would be praised from others in his ideology right now... This sort of thing won't stop. It's horrific and disgusting and everyone has a right to be fearing.

Since Khan became Mayor of London. Boris had it under control when he was Mayor. Maybe some of Khan's constituent's would like this.

OMG where's Howard when we need him. Ban all knives, Now.

Justloo85230955 Majority of people knew this already.

I hope this bloke isn't paid to much if that is the shit he is spilling out.

ban-all-knives

No shit .. and you needed a uni professor to tell you this ..

Knife crime has been growing in the UK for years, what’s your point? Does that mean every knifing victim is a victim of terrorism and every Stanley knife holding fan is a terrorist Mr expert..your thoughts

Wow fuck me. That's just the smartest thing iv ever heard...

Should we ban knives or the humans?

Rocket science

certoscio2 Makes all those inner city bollards look pretty useless!

Um, you can't buy a plastic spoon in the UK without proof of age lol.

Knives easy to obtain? No shit, Captain Obvious. Explains why he’s at Deakin though 🤣. Hardly the Oxford scholar eh!!

Well the answer is obvious, we must ban knives... Obviously.

Tell is something we dont know d***head.

Yes for cowardly Muslims...

Cue the calls for a knife buy back and stricter rules for obtaining and using knives!

Er.....and the insight here is...?

Knives are more dangerous than firearms. Lefties and drips can't comprehend this. They cry police brutally and racism when lethal force is used in response, say 'why didn't the cop disarm him, use a taser or spray? That's what I would have done' You wouldn't have done shit!

Wow! Thanks for the insight, Prof.

It was reported a little while ago that they were making their guns with 3D printers with instructions downloaded off the internet on how to do so, unfortunately there’d be still some idiots out there still doing it

No shit Sherlock. I could have told . the EXACT SAME thing myself - does that make me eligible to be a Senior Lecturer at Deakin University? The guy must be a real genius. Ffs

Soooooo gun control laws work.... There fixed the headline for you.....
