A Scottish MP has lodged a motion calling for the implementation of a "Damian's law" following a petiiton that was started by a father who lost his son to knife crime.
Damian Muir was fatally stabbed 8 times by a man who, of his own admission, claimed that his victim was in 'the wrong place at the wrong time,' the loss of his son has influenced John Muir to try and step up the sentencing for knife carriers.
What's your thoughts? Should those who carry a knife be given a mandatory custodial sentence?
