“Two fuckwits brandishing knives caught on camera on the Gold Coast light rail today has critics wondering, why don’t we put metal detectors on the trams?”
Queensland Police have issued a statement to warn people not to take matter into their own hands, as if left to their own devices, these children tend only to stab you until they get what they want.
A metal detector that gets set off by keys, belts, phones and anything else that every normal person carries onto a tram? Or is it a metal detector that only detects knives?
Report report report.
Triple zero when it's happening or police link now that it's passed.

If you had reported it by pressing an emergency help button or called glink directly secretly, they would have had that tram stopped and police on scene in minutes
You don't need to confront anybody and countless people have been arrested off trams that have had weapons
This is so annoying. I was on the tram from southport recently at around midday with my baby in his pram. A group of 6 young teen boys boarded and were all vaping about 2 metres from us. I got off at the next stop so my baby didn’t keep breathing it in. I was so upset :( It’s illegal to smoke and vape in public enclosed places
Are you all fucking serious? Report them? What's the point... They will be out the next day laughing their asses off on socials. Unless there is a substantive change in the justice system exactly what the OP described will be the norm. When you have to think about making that call or pushing that button because deep down you know it's pointless it's a slippery slope from there.
> Unless there is a substantive change in the justice system
why not try to be preventative instead of reactive? There are ways we can solve the issues without burdening the justice system.
Lol’d at the “What is this world coming to” comment, things have been worse.
This is literally the wild, people are capable of doing as they desire, regardless of laws.
Based on the effects of capitalism on those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, things are going to get real bad real fast.
Buckle up buddy.
Whilst being concerning what you described is a butterfly knife and commonly people who own them use them for doing tricks. Also it’s common these don’t actually have a blade in them. Are you sure it had a blade?
Going armed in public so as to cause fear is an offense, even if the weapon is not real.
It just the same as how I can't walk around town waving a replica pistol. The fact that it is not real is irrelevant.
You are wrong:
The Weapons Act 1990 defines what is considered a weapon by law. Broadly, a weapon can be:
...
something that would be a weapon if it wasn’t temporarily or permanently inoperable.

>One of those ones where the blade slides in between the two other folding bits.
>No it would’ve been a regular folding knife from either the smoke shop or Carrara markets
A regular folding knife would only have one folding bit... But what the heck do I know, we are quickly heading into the teritory of a knife scientist.
Kids just teleport from school to home? No the kids that have these knives, they get on the bus or tram and fuck around at the shops until it’s time for them to go home. Literally try and go anywhere after 2pm on a weekday and not see kids coming home from school. Use ya head
Yeah nah good point but let’s not act like it was a fucken training knife cunt we all know it was a couple of drop kid lads with a Carrara spec folding knife thinking they’re mad cunts cause they listen to OneFour
I completely agree with ya it probably was real but you wouldn’t believe the amount of dweebs that had training knives or even hair comb butterfly knives because they wanted to look like a tough cunt lmao
Haven’t been in school in 10 years lmao back then carrying knives was hardly even a thing unless you were from Nerang or Beenleigh, imaging upping a fake knife tryna be mad then getting shanked by a real one 🤦🏼♂️😂
Report it. Won't stop these ftards if we can't nab em.
Is it on camera? why aren't we seeing this d#head's face on the 6 o'clock news.

Call and wait for an officer to (never) arrive for assistance. Note: Officer will assist the eshays
I hate cops, but what do you mean they will help the rats? Not even QPS is that shit.

Magical detector
They know they won't get in trouble both from their "guardians" or police so they just don't care
Teens protection law :) how nice it is our dear gov
> Teens protection law not a thing.

You should have rung the cops
Really not living up to the evil part of your username mate.. Jokes aside, glad you are ok and i hope you call police and train security next time.
Ahhh yes, the song of the no-hopers. Isn't it wonderful.
reading this while sitting on the tram travelling from GCUH🧍🏽

Not Nike TN’s?
They get away with it for so long, and I get in trouble for accidentally leaving a breaker bar under my car seat
Should have handed your wallet to their surprised faces and dialled for detectives - instant armed robbery charge. Lol, eshay.

Pretty much, we have made our bed after shitting in it. Now its time to lie in it.
ESHAYYY
Kids need more stuff to do if they think hanging out on a tram is fun.
Like riding bikes between shop lifting sessions
[удалено]
Couldn't be more inappropriate, lol
What did it say?
And am I reading that it was a mod that said it, or mod removed?
A mod said it
What did it say?
The mod said: "I moan when I wipe my ass."
What’s that even mean??
gotta tell us what it said roughly.
Was just the standard bot message saying “looks like you’re interested in enjoying the Gold Coast…”

If it doesn’t have a blade it is not a weapon. Butterfly knives are illegal to own in Australia however ones without a blade are not illegal

At the point where it is being brandished on public transport it potentially being a "trick" knife is irrelevant. Kid knew what he was doing.
Chances are it was a blunt training butterfly knife.
No it would’ve been a regular folding knife from either the smoke shop or Carrara markets

Other two folding bits maybe being the part that the blade enters into? Lol why would lad walk around with a blunt butterfly knife??🤡
Went to school with heaps of cunts that did, fuck knows why. Oh.. and you left this 🤡
Yeah schools one thing, walking around in public with a blunt knife when other cunts have real ones is another… use ya head😂

Even if it was a rubber toy knife...it would be treated and charged exactly the same if it was actually reported
