But many children have died in China in recent years in similar knife
attacks at schools... By statute they and other locations have become
relatively safe places for madmen to cause mayhem.

Right. Let's use that as a reason to equip everybody including
teachers with firearms.

The problem with guns is that you can't outrun a bullet and it's
pretty hard to fight off someone if they're aiming a gun at you. With
someone holding a knife, you might be able to stay out of their reach
or at the very least, have a much better chance of fighting them off.



I knife will never be used for mass killings like a gun. Take away the
gun and the guy then uses a pipe bomb.

Seems to me a couple of box knives killed thousands on 9-11.



No, I believe it was the airplanes. If you are saying that the box
knives facilitated the start of destruction you might as well say that
the hyjackers clothing killed thousands also. They would not have been
able to get on board the air plane had they been naked.
