[url=http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/33-dead-130-injured-china-knife-wielding-spree-n41966]A group of knife-wielding men attacked a train station in southwestern China on Saturday, killing at least 29 people and injuring more than 130 others in what Chinese officials called a terrorist strike, the official Xinhua News Agency said.[/url]
So stop saying banning guns will end violence like that.

58 回复[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chenpeng_Village_Primary_School_stabbing]On the 14th of December, 2012, a man walked into a primary school armed with a weapon and unfortunately managed to claim 24 victims.[/url] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Hook_Elementary_School_shooting]On the 14th of December, 2012, a man walked into a primary school armed with a weapon and unfortunately managed to claim 29 victims.[/url] In the first case, none of them were killed, but in the second, 27. In the first case, the attacker was armed with a knife, but in the second, a firearm. Are we noticing something here? Nobody is denying that violence can still occur if firearms were removed from the general populace. [b][u]Nobody[/u][/b], like, at all. However, what should be painfully obvious to anybody with a modicum of intelligence is the effectiveness of the weapon. That being, [b]a firearm is a far more effective killing instrument than a knife[/b]. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua_TZ84hmEA]tl;dr[/url]

3 回复由DesticleStomper6编辑: 3/4/2014 4:41:17 AMBanning guns knives shanks broken glass bottles and pencils or whatever will not magically reduce the amount of insane psychotic sickos and serial killers that live among us with or without premeditated murder in mind. If you Really wanna kill somebody or some people, you'll find a way. No ban will stop them. Will it Complicate their efforts? Perhaps.

2 回复Banning guns will lower the amount killed, they're more efficient than a knife. Humans are violent if a somebody wanted to massacre a bunch of people the would find a way. All we can do is limit it, or attempt too.

1 回复由Quantum编辑: 3/4/2014 5:21:56 AMWhat 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]
