BAN ALL KNIVES! THEY ARE A DANGER TO OUR KIDS!


Actually, libs aren’t saying that. They are saying nobody was killed and are saying imagine what would have happened if he used a gun instead of a knife.

The answer to that is a gun has to hit a vital area to kill, and once you are out of bullets, it is no longer dangerous. A knife does not run out of edge, and can slash an artery anywhere on the body, and the victim might not even know he’s been cut until he bleeds out. Arteries are exposed to the skin surface all over the front of your arms and the back of your legs, in addition to the carotid arteries and jugular veins on the neck. Only a fool stabs instead of slashing with a knife or sword. Only a broadsword and an axe are made for hacking. Samurai swords and French rapiers are made to slash with, the latter also being good for light quick pricking. In conclusion, knives and swords are better killing instruments than a gun. The only real advantage a gun has over them is that it can be used from far off. Other than that, a knife is more versatile than a gun, but a garrote is more certain to kill than either a gun or knife, and easier to conceal.
