What daz said. Also, you do realize that the last terrorist attack in a developing country in a crowded city [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Mumbai_attacks]claimed 154 lives using guns?[/url] And that was with [i]police resistance.[/i] These Chinese terrorists would have killed like 4-5 times the number of people had they used guns in the operation, and the police didn't really intervene in force until significantly after the attack began. The Mumbai siege [i]lasted days despite the relatively quick police reaction. [/i]
