Silly, perhaps, but then, so are most of the rationales advanced for gun control. They won’t succeed in stopping criminal violence, or even in reducing it much. Case in point: “moped crime” in London. Armed individuals would go a long way towards reducing that type of crime, I reckon. Certainly, nothing else is working!

Moped crime? A pipe or short length of chain in the spokes should deter the criminal.
Agree, but I think they made pipes and chains illegal!
Canes work, and are less "weapony-looking".
