    I remember there was a fidget spinner, That was designed exactly Like a Knuckle duster, Fit just like a knuckle duster, Full metal with points on the Tips where you punch.
    I dont need to carry weapons anymore, In school many years ago I did have a knuckle duster, Also nearly got searched when I had it on me, But luckily with my Charms, They never bothered as they knew i was a good lad in the area, Even though i went through hell in school, Bullying, Drink and drugs, Crime and Deaths, Family problems,Suicide, The Royal Marines.
    Now Im proud of who I am, and how i Help the people in my community loading food and supplies at a job I love, Helping good people In my area, Even last week i Helped donate a few hundred quids worth of toys and food supplies to make 250+ Christmas boxes for people and families in need.
