It was our socialist Left state Premier because local lads, generally teenager gangs, like to use them on each other and during armed home invasions. They like to steal cars from private homes. When caught they are given repeated bail - the same Premier weakened the bail laws a couple of years ago out of compassion for the dear, under-age treasures - forcing the Police to operate catch and release programs. Some of the thugs are on multiple bails for very serious crimes - because they are under-age. The Premier's solution has been to spend $A13 million installing machete deposit bins outside Police stations and demand all owners of machetes turn them in. Exemptions are granted for those in horticulture/agriculture. In the meantime the likely lads are still running around hacking at each other and anyone else in the way. Being crims they don't obey Laws and hand in their weapons. A few weeks ago two lads on their way home from sports training were hacked to death by a gang of 7 youths. One had both hands severed. So much for the socialist paradise that is the State of Victoria.

That trend has a very familiar sound to it. The coddle and cuddle brigade have a lot to answer for.
