Another Mass Killing

A man “full of anger” stabbed, slashed and robbed his way across two Southern California cities in a bloody rampage that killed four people and wounded two others who were apparently targeted at random, authorities said.
Time to "do something, goddammit" about those stabby/slashy things?

    Per wikipedia "List of mass shootings in the United States in 2019

    As of July 31, 2019, 248 mass shootings have occurred in 2019 that fit the inclusion criteria of this article. This averages out to 1.2 shootings per day. In these shootings, 979 people were injured and 246 died (for a total of 1,325 victims).

    Here is what WIKI says about 2018 and mass shootings:
    323 mass shootings occurred in 2018 that fit the inclusion criteria of this article, resulting in 1,661 people being shot. Of those people, 387 people have died.

    Note wikipedia doesn't have a list of mass stabbings. Google doesn't show many US mass stabbings, basically just the two I listed at the top.

    Maybe we should all hope and pray for more stabbings.

  2. Knives will be gone if they become 1/100th of the problem that guns are - they dont have a NKA to lobby in congress with $$MILLIONS$$ from the russians.
