Knife attacks in the UK are increasingly becoming a cause for alarm if not an alarm; recent stats have revealed a drastic upsurge in the levels of attacks in the United Kingdom. According to recent stats, the United Kingdom witnessed 13405 incidences of knife attacks in 2022 alone. This is not all, the stats also showed that between October 2021 and June 2022, there were more than 49991 reported cases of knife attacks. This is equal to an average of 136 knife attacks per day.

And that would bring us to the big question for today, why is the United Kingdom experiencing a rise in knife attacks?

Just before we go into that, I want to point out what a knife attack is.
A knife attack is any form of attack that involves the use of a knife to cause physical injury to the body of an individual, this injury can result in the death of the victim.

To the question now: Why is knife increasing

There are a lot of reasons for this increase they include:

Toxic environment
Top on the list in today's piece is the toxic environment. It is important to point out that the 21st-century world is complex. The emergence of technology has also been a major reason why our world has been complex. That said, the complexity of our world today has greatly increased the moral toxicity levels in our environment. The toxicity in our environment in this context means any sociocultural and physical settings that prompt thuggery, hooliganism and mob actions. All of these are all together referred to as negative behaviors. And the truth is these negative behaviors of mob action, thuggery and hooliganism are increasingly becoming the acceptable values in our society today. It is also important to point out that the toxicity in our environment has had a greater impact on the younger generation between the age bracket of 15-28. This particular age group has been mostly affected by the toxicity in our environment.

You probably might ask how they have been affected.

Well, remember I told you that, toxicity is increasingly becoming the norm in society and this is because this is what the younger generation sees as the standard. A lot of people in the younger generation grew up in a society that promotes violence and hooliganism. These young people see these things in movies. The movie industry has played a huge role in promoting toxicity and violence. A lot of movies produced these days are Gangster movies depicting gun attacks and knife attacks. This younger generation sees this and wants to emulate such. Also, violent video games have played a huge role in promoting violence among the younger generation. This is because many of the younger generation are increasingly getting addicted to these violent games, they get addicted to the point they bring such acts to the real world and this often turns them into violent individuals.
