Default I just don't get it. There are mass shootings then

there are stabbing sprees. Would the term mass stabbing be confusing. Where is the outrage in the recent stabbing spree?

And why does the story cross-link mass shootings, trying to group them together? The weapon is irrelevant, you can't fix these people.

But, but "Ban Guns" is the story when an armed attack occurs. That's like banning trucks when a DUI with death involved happens. The people trying to pull strings behind the scenes are hoping to get enough of the stupid to buy into that shit.

And there is enough stupid to go around out there. People are easily manipulated and brainwashed, and half our country is that way. I also find it funny that the "tolerant" libs are the ones committing violent acts ie:Antifa, etc. Most of the rest of us have jobs to go to, so therefore no time for dumb shit like that. I guess working at Starbucks, living in mom's basement give these fools plenty of time to act out.

In so far as the machete attack, that doesn't fit their narrative. Smart people realize why our founding fathers made sure we were able to have firearms, and tyrannical government is the reason. If the 2nd amendment ever falls, the 1st is right behind it, along with other rights. Why people can't seem to get a grip on that is beyond me. And almost all of these mass shooters have put their plans literally all over the internet. Hell, the Parkland shooter had been reported to the FBI, and the Sheriff's office called on him like 38 times. Problem is, these nuts aren't on a database and no one gets the word that they are about to go ape shit. Clean up some of the mental health mess in this country, and watch a lot of these problems go away. Just my .02 though.

Well wait a minute, do we know if it was a black 'assault' knife? Or just your regular old 'Grandmas sharper than shit' kitchen knife? because clearly there is a difference and assault knives are much worse to get stabbed with than kitchen knives......
