Perhaps he had a box cutter with break away tips. He can use a new lade every time

Kart, this is about multiple victims being stabbed at a Houston area junior college.

I am glad the Cold Steel 24 inch machete I ordered will be here this week before one has to get a license for a knife or knives over “x” inches are banned from buying.

>>I wonder what the ratio is of trained martial artists who could and would EASILY disarm this clown (me included) to that of the untrained who could not.<<

Why bring martial arts to a gun fight? This is Texas man...we carry sidearms.

I don’t know if I should call for (1) a ban on knives or (2) a ban on stupid students who are incapable of defending themselves from a knife-wielding nut job.

Ban the knives, ban the forks
ban the bottles and ban the corks
ban the bacon and ban the fat
ban it all, that’s where it’s at

Ban the sodas and ban the guns
ban the hot dogs and ban the buns
ban the taxis and everyone walks
ban the cel phones and everyone talks

ban the facebook and ban the tweets
ban the sugars and ban the sweets
ban the football and ban the fun
but one thing you’ll never ban IS MY GUN

“If inches get banned my wife is going to be one unhappy lady! ;-)”

What you have to do, is, make a ruler with YOUR definition of how long an inch is.

The latest info on the slashing/stabbing with the knife, is, one white male who ran from building to building, slashing people on the head, face, and neck. The number I hear now is 15 with three not wanting treatment. The rest were sent to two hospitals. Critical and serious sent to a trauma Houston hospital by helicopter. Two are in critical condition, the rest in fair condition.

He ran and slashed/stabbed as he went so people didn't realize anything was happening at the other end of the hall until they got slashed as he ran by. Then ran in another building and continued to stab and slash down that hall.

If there had been a gun shot, people would have reacted quickly to get out of the way.

I would bet you there will be a call for a ban on knives and inches may be limited, Kart, so make your new ruler.

Better yet, ban all metals that are used to make guns, knives, etc

Great idea man, Obummer's gonna love it. He may award you an autographed 5x7 photo of himself grinning like a possum eatin briar berries. You'll probably want to frame it and put it on your desk where everybody can see it.

What do you say, let's get the ball rolling by melting down our own "weapons of war", OK? I'll melt down mine if you will and we can cast the metal into a statue of Obummer standing in the Rose Garden with one foot on the Constitution and his other foot kicking Wayne Lapierre's butt. We might even get a medal of some kind, I want mine engraved to say "He gave his all (all his guns that is) to save mankind".

Yeah, but what would that medal be made of? Cheddar cheese?
