Well obviously what we need here is knife control, too many knives in the wrong hands..every American should only be allowed to have 1 knife and that is after passing a through background check

The poor woman probably thought she’d go to a gun fight and win by numerical superiority.

She may have 3500 knifes, but only two hands and one actionable knife.

The remaining 3499 knifes have nothing to do with this incident.

Alcohol, a credit card and late night shopping channels are a bad combination.

Perhaps she aspired to be a Ginsu salesperson.

Nothing wrong with a bunch of knives.

Maybe they like knives.

Trying to stab someone is a problem though.

Which proves she wasn’t very sharp after all.

So what was the cop doing in her home?

And apparently she didn’t have a dog or, you know...
