I hope the thug that done the stab gets 25 years but he wont. Knives need to be treated the same as gun crime and long sentance's are needed.

I am a SIA door supervisor. I have worked West Street bars since 1993 when i worked The VIP club currently the joint i think and i worked Swifts. West Street is a scummy place I have seen some disgusting sights i think the worse was a pretty young women all dressed up crapping in the gutter out side Nation Wide.
