They never seem to use them, though, even though the Scottish capacity for booze is legendary. Sikhs also traditionally carry a dagger (kirpan) on them all the time. That doesn't often seem to lead to much violence or accidental injury, either.
Then again, there've been a couple of murder cases in Britain in recent years that involved Samurai swords.
About prisons and the death penalty in Japan. I really don't understand those who insist that the punishment of crime ought to be nice. In some countries, there are habitual criminals who treat jail like a holiday home.
*Sigh*, Franks comment was a joke.. geeze
But there is no reason for people to carry swords in Japan. Samurai, who now no longer exist, were the only people to have the right to carry swords. And no samurai means noone carries swords. Simple, its not that same as in Scotland
