Sworded

[purpleyin]

So, the government wants to ban swords. All swords. Hmm. Or do they? The following may or may not be true, I'm not sure currently.

There is at present a Bill before the government to bring into law a
COMPLETE ban on swords.

This could mean:

No more re-enactment, Living history.
No more martial arts using swords
No more fencing
No more collecting
No more sword dancing
No more sword making or selling
Restrictions on the Sikh religious festivals where swords are worn.

Please help to stop this happening. Sign up to the government anti
legislation petition, it's at;

Arrowed!
First, draw an S. Then, draw a more different S!

They aren't actually trying to ban any of those types of swords.
Just katanas and even then they're keeping licensing. :)
