Like in a Taylor Swift dance class?
There are a ton of things in a kitchen where a point is needed to cut things. Requiring the blunts to be dull means a lot of home sharpening so the knives are useful in the kitchen. Her emotional reaction is valid, but the proposed solution is stupid.
Not sure what your point is here? We all know what the Southport attack was.
The article is about a victim of the Southport attack advocating for dull kitchen knives in the kitchen.
There was certainly a 'no-brain' somewhere in her thought process, I'll grant her that.
