Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight.

This will only work in the communist states that have disarmed the populace.

Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight.

I am always armed with my concealed pistol. Sounds like the kind of matchup I'd like.

Devil’s advocate: knife attacks are much harder to ward off. An attacker with a knife can be done quicker than you would have time to react. There will need to be a handful of these types of attacks on folks in the US before it becomes and awareness issue. Most of us aren’t trained like law enforcement.

This is exactly why my great-great grandfather left his
old Smith & Wesson revolver to us. It served him well on
the Tennessee River when he was a lightskeeper there. (He
fueled and upkept the river lights so the riverboats and
other river traffic wouldn’t wreck on the rocky banks of
the river.) A rough bunch hung around that river and they
would just as soon shoot or stab you as look at you back
then - probably is still like that.

We live on a river. If the jihadists can make it through
the sinkhole in our front drive, past the vipers, then
past DUB, our big guard dog, well, then they will have to
clear the Smith & Wesson hurdle if they like their odds.
