Is it too soon to ask if we should ban knives?

Makes as much sense as any other answer they have.

The moment someone beats someone else to death with a frozen leg of lamb, we'll all be condemned to veganism.

Ok, this will sound off on a tangent, but here goes...

My grandfather was a POW in Japan. The movies you've seen, the stories you've read barely touch on the atrocity of it all. So this little nugget was just the one way the prisoners were able to mock the severely stupid prison guards and get a chuckle.

Word would go out into the camp from time to time that the guards were looking for - say - knives. And the prisoners would brazenly leave non-knife weapons in bold view of the guards, because the guards were given orders to look for KNIVES. So they would IGNORE the weapons - because they had no concept of the idea that knives don't kill guards, prisoners do. Or could. When your 6 foot tall grandfather weighed 98 pounds, he probably wasn't going to kill much.

Basically - they were blaming - the knife. Profoundly stupid? Of course.

I think you can see where I am going with this - we all do think it is ridiculous to try and ban KNIVES because they'll just use pointed sticks - and then they'll try and ban WOOD. You can't stop violence from a violent person by taking away everything they can use as a weapon. Obviously in a PRISON, you try and minimize it, but you can kill someone with shoelaces or a shiv made out of sharpened and hardened PAPER or toothbrush.

And I get, guns. A weak person can kill a lot of people with a gun (assuming they can aim).

But violent people will find a way to commit violence - now, they're using cars, large groups preying on the old and weak, pushing people in front of trains and moving vehicles. Bats. And lately of course, knives and attacking multiple people.

It's clear enough to me you don't ban weapons - you ban the person using them on innocents.

Over a six-month period at least, the woman, Tania Estudillo Hernandez, had allegedly held and/or processed 80 to 100 illegal aliens per month at a residence in El Mirage, the police department stated in a Facebook post.

The illegal aliens were charged as much as $15,000 each in smuggling fees, police said. At $15,000 a person, for 80 people per month over six months, that’s a total of $7.2 million.

Now another, and entire family executed by MS-13 members.. but unsecure borders are unimportant. Cartels are moving in, and setting up shop, bringing their violence with them, mostly to the places with the strongest gun laws.

I seem to remember that a couple of airplanes did a lot of damage and killed thousands. We still use airplanes.
