What is Britain coming too as Harry Potter Actor is Stabbed to Death?

May 26, 2008 By 4 Comments

Rob Knox as we know was the young actor from the latest Harry Potter movie, who was stabbed to death in London, Britain. His parents were so proud of him, and that he had this small part in one of the biggest movie franchises. However; could you just imagine the grief that both parents are going through right now, there son was just 18 and at the prime of his life, with the future just waiting for him to take hold off it. I do start to worry what London and the rest of Britain is coming too, two weeks ago another young lad, 16-year-old Jimmy Mizen was also murdered in London on the 10th May, it seems as if crime is going up instead of down in Britain.

Rob Knox was not the only lad to be stabbed in the knife attack; three others were stabbed in the attack which happened outside the Metro Bar in Station Road, Sidcup, London. You do have to commend how brave Rob Knox’s parents are, his father has said “If the media attention surrounding his son’s killing encouraged people to stop carrying knives his death would not have been in vain.” Knox is now the 14th teenager in London to be murdered violently this year alone, but police do not think that the death of Knox was gang related. A 21-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

It looks as though Britain is becoming like so many other countries in the World, where police do not seem to have enough power from stopping these violent acts from happening. I do not know if it is down to the youth of today, who just seem to take no notice of our countries laws. However, I also feel that with the influx of so many immigrants coming into Britain, that crime will only go up as many different cultures are trying to mix, and something is bound to go wrong.

    Bring back the death penalty…. forensic testing is these days is far more accurate ,thus enabling to get the right man. Lets face it these days .. criminals get too many perks..the prisons are over crowded. that they let them out again ..these people think so little of life ..life is cheap !…… I never thought i would feel so strongly about this… but i find myself wanting the Death Penalty brought back… its not just my own opinion.. i have heard many other people say the same thing. If an eye for an eye is the only way to try and deter people away from making such tragic mistakes… then its the only way forward… Every action has a reaction…. if you are going to take someones elses life.. be prepared to lose your own.

    Are you certain there should be a second O in the word ‘too’ in the above sentence?

    I think Britain is coming to a point where anyone can pretend to be a journalist, despite their shoddy use of English.

    Are you serious buddy, this is a serious thing that has happend to a young man which is quite upsetting to the family and friends and all you can do is come here and slag off the publishing of this news. Not everyone is perfect but the main news here is about a man who lost his life to violence which should be sorted. The people responsible for this should be put on a block and hung like animals, Rob Knox was a young man and a budding actor and the loss of his life is very much upsetting to say the least, i cannot believe you have come here to moan about a friggin spelling mistake, you should grow up. How would you feel if this happened to you….

    My thoughts are with Rob Knox’s family and friends.

    Peter, the problems are far more deeply seeded than immigrants. Its not the immigrants responsible for violent crime – its British teenagers. Immigrants may be the easy scapegoat but you will not solve any problems by throwing offhanded statements like that. Consider instead common problems such as underage drinking and unsocial behaviour.
