The Victorian government will ban the sale of machetes from Wednesday after a gang brawl at a shopping centre.

Two males were arrested and another was taken to hospital in a serious but stable condition after the incident at Northlands shopping centre.

This might be one of those,

  1. We have to do something
  2. This is something
  3. We must do this.

It completely depends on how the rules are implemented however. It isn't just knee jerk policy and has been in the works for a bit. I do hope it works.
