Be careful what you call sarcasm, that sounds like something that idiot would do.

from the article:

Thomas Gilliland with the Harris County Sheriff's Office confirmed that only one suspect was detained and was identified as the only suspect in the incident.

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

He had a large capacity Xacto knife.

It was un registered.

The news media is already all over this for the wrong reasons...Surely a pathetic sub-human species of slime...

Already called my state rep in Austin, and told them to get off their asses and get teh Campus Carry bill passed...

The ball is in their court now...Stop fartin’ around...

Their idea of gun-free zones is working so well now.../sarc

Love it when one of the kids (young man) came right out and on national TV said he wish he had had a gun...the media is flabber-gasted...Obviously they do not understand the concept here...

Let’s stop to pray for these victims before we comment on the larger policy implications of this atrocity.

Must have been a “high capacity” knife.

We should make it a little harder for people to knife down our kids.

>warning students of two armed suspects and saying one person remains at large

No description of the suspect I can find. It’s either a minority or they don’t want people to know what to look out for.

I would be careful of that argument. Knife victims to hospital. CT victims to morgue. The argument you are making will get decimated n the press.

Knives? Am I the only one who sees the irony in this?

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.

No problem, they’ll just prohibit knives.

UK Considers Banning Kitchen Knives

The UK has soem zany knife laws...guns are practically non-existent, yet people still find a way to kill. Who knew?

There was a story here about a knife surrender day in the UK, similar to gun buybacks here. I did a little research, and there is an age limit for carrying a long blade (I think over 3 inches). A minor is not able to possess anything longer, not even if he buys a kitchen knife at the store and brings it home in a cardboard box. If you’re under 18, you can only hold a long knife within the confines of your own home.
