I know you were asking about mass killings by knife in the stats. However, there is a mass knifing. Happened today in Paris, leaving 4 policemen dead.

Israel in 1947 began fortifying schools and having armed guards
no one comes in or out without being checked.

There have been only 2 shootings in 44 years and both were killed by security detail.

Listening America.

There have been many violent attacks near schools or school buses in that time
Seems to be not telling it like it is - near schools and buses isnot a school shooting.

Stop the guns, they will use knives
Stop the PEOPLE and you stop the attacks.

Reality check, are you kidding? The gun grabbers believe people are the core problem in global climate change, while inanimate objects are the core problem in violence.

People impact the weather, not violence.

Yes, indeed. Most leftists are the walking, talking, breathing personifications of Lunacy.

You summed it up quite nicely: The left believes people are literally murdering all life on the planet with our bad habits, lifestyles, dependencies, etc. But when it comes to homicides, the gun is the number one suspect and, ultimately, the primary villain.

Well, stronger gun laws certainly would have prevented that one!

Why do you always leave out out quantitative analysis?
Any notion of the total amounts of victims of mass stabbings in France as compared to the numbers of mass shootings here?

I am bowing out of this thread. I am content to allow states to chose which gun control laws if any. I will stay in NY state and you gents can maim and kill all you want in your red states. Deal?

I understand why you never do quantitative analysis.

You are too lazy to take your socks and gloves off.

I know counting accurately is as bitch
