DURING THE BLITZ: “KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.”

NOW: UK Police Stop Publishing Pictures of Seized Knives in Case They Frighten People. Or maybe it’s really just to keep from looking like idiots: “May 2018 saw a number of such weapons busts proudly displayed on Facebook and Twitter, with London’s Hackney Police being forced to delete their social media posts of ‘weapons’ after being mocked for confiscating a butter knife and a bicycle wheel. . . . Britons also mocked Regents Park Police for displaying, along with machetes, butcher knives, and a fencing sword that had been handed over to them, a rusty dessert spoon.”

Mock them more.
